From his perch in a Sun Life Stadium radio booth Wednesday night, former Georgia Tech captain Roddy Jones was incredulous, disbelieving that B-back Synjyn Days had managed to stay inbounds on his 69-yard touchdown run on the second play of the second half in the Yellow Jackets' Orange Bowl victory Wednesday night.
Jones' former teammate, Sean Bedford, the sideline reporter for Tech's radio broadcast, offered a knowing response. Of course Jones knew. He had done the same thing six years ago.
Days' 69-yard run may well take its place along Jones' 54-yard sideline dash against Georgia in 2008. Days scored on a belly play, a quick-hitting run play in which he took a handoff from quarterback Justin Thomas and took a step into the line before bouncing out behind left tackle Bryan Chamberlain.
Chamberlain and A-back Deon Hill drove Mississippi State Preston Smith clear off the line, giving Days a lane to run. Days did the rest as he slashed to the sideline, taking advantage of Mississippi State tightly positioning eight defenders in the box who were quickly out of the play.
Starting at the line of scrimmage at the Tech 31-yard line, Days ran past safety Deontay Evans' attempt to catch him from an angle at the 38. He stepped through safety Jay Hughes as he dove at his feet at the Tech 45. The centerpiece of the run was his overpowering cornerback Taveze Calhoun at the Mississippi State 46-yard line, as Calhoun absorbed the business end of Days' tree-trunk right thigh.
Five yards downfield, linebacker Matt Wells made something of a half-hearted effort to push Days out of bounds, perhaps thinking Days' momentum would carry him out of bounds. But Days stayed inbounds, at points perhaps inches from stepping out, and gained steam as he ran to the end zone.
Days' run triggered Tech's offensive onslaught in the second half, mostly generated by Days and B-back Zach Laskey, and often returning to the bountiful well that was the belly play. Coach Paul Johnson referred to it in post-game comments as a "gravy train."
"We ran it once and we saw what they were in, and we were like, If they're not going to take it away, then we're going to keep doing it," guard Shaquille Mason said.
Mason said the Mississippi State defense, which was being directed by first-time playcaller Deshea Townsend, never adjusted.
"Their interior, they had too many people on the inside and not enough people outside," Mason said.
Townsend was at a considerable tactical disadvantage. Johnson has been calling plays and making adjustments for his offense since 1985. Townsend, a 13-year NFL veteran, has been a coach for four years, had never faced an option offense like Tech's at any point in his career as a coach or even as a player.
"Honestly, I thought they would make adjustments, seeing how successful we were with it, but they stayed in the same thing and they paid for it," Mason said.
In the second half, Days and Laskey had a combined 24 of the Jackets' 33 carries and gained 210 of Tech's 318 rushing yards after halftime.
Said Laskey, "We struggled in the first half but then we came out in the second half and got stopped only once the whole second half. Anytime you can make those halftime adjustments and come out and produce an outcome like that, it is a great day."

We've all seen the photos online.
Someone raising a glass of wine while sitting on a beach or on a mountain top.
Or maybe a glass of wine glittering in the sunset.
Or a close-up of a label on a bottle of impossible-to-find wine or a wine that costs as much or more than a monthly car payment.
I know I'm guilty of posting many of the same photos myself on Facebook or Twitter.
And I know I personally post such photos sometimes because I'm so excited about a particular wine I just had and I want to "share" that moment with "friends."
But I'm also very well aware that a lot people, sometimes even including myself, find these photos.... what's the right word for it? Annoying? Obnoxious? Pretentious?
Other times, these photos bring to mind a slogan I once saw on a T-shirt someone was wearing a few years ago. There were just two words on the front of shirt - Nobody Cares.
But why?
Why do some of us feel this way? And I think it's fair to say "us" since I think other people feel the same way.
I wonder why.
Actually, I think I know why. I think many of us have SMF - Social Media Fatigue.
A decade ago, Facebook, Twitter and many other social media websites were new and exciting. We loved seeing what are friends were up to and where they went for the weekend or on vacation.
Now, nearly everyone we know has a social media account. And keeping up with what everyone's doing can be exhausting. Or in the past year or so, finding out a friend's political beliefs can be more infuriating than comforting.
And then there's the wine photos. Again, I'm guilty as charged. But I can see where many people probably find such photos annoying and insufferable. Who honestly cares that I just had a glass of red wine while watching the sun set over the ocean or a mountain range?
And it probably wouldn't be bad if only a few people were posting such photos online. But we all do it. And after a while, I'm sure many people simply get tired of seeing one glamorous wine photo after another. And that's where SMF comes in.
We're inundated now with photo after photo after photo from friends and people we don't even know doing amazing things and leading seemingly glamorous lives. And I don't know about you, but after a while, even I get tired to seeing someone's latest, greatest glass of wine.
And if you do see a bottle of wine in a photo, it's hardly ever a box wine or $10 bottle they bought at the liquor store on their way home from work that they're having with leftovers while watching reruns on Netflix - even though those are the kinds of wines many of us drink and how we often consume them.
Instead, the photos almost always feature an amazing, expensive wine intended to inspire envy. Instead, many of us roll their eyes.
Then there's the unspoken class thing about wine that no one wants to talk about. When you post a photo of yourself drinking a beer, you're just a regular guy. When you post a photo of yourself drinking a glass a wine, many of the people who do so want other people to think they're sophisticated, refined, elegant.
Baloney. Wine's a drink just like beer or root beer or anything else. Drinking wine doesn't make you more sophisticated and drinking beer doesn't make you a slob. I love both of them and I don't think it's a contradiction. If you're passionate about wine like I am, that's great. But that doesn't mean we're any better than people who don't like wine or like beer instead.
So in the spirit of combating SMF and maybe putting a smile on your face, this week's wine column includes my lame attempt at unglamorous wine photos. And if you have any yourself, please post them in the comment section below or share them online.
Or better yet, use your phone as a phone and call a friend and make plans to meet them in person for a glass of wine. And don't worry about taking a photo. Just enjoy yourselves.

ALKMAAR, Netherlands — " . . . We remember the unending suffering that has been brought on people in the name of Germans. We remember all the victims of war and tyranny. We unite with the will that all this never again be allowed to happen."
-- West German Foreign Minister Hans-Dietrich Genscher speaking in Parliament during the Sept. 20 unification debate.
The teen-age faces were as bright and hopeful as the morning outside, yet the words of those who spoke were hedged with doubt.
Two generations removed from the weight of the Holocaust and the Nazi occupation of their country, the Dutch students discussing German unity had no fear that a united, democratic Germany might somehow resume its military aggression.
Instead, the concern was more subtle. It was there, but ill-focused.
"I don't see the Germans as enemies, and I don't think there is going to be another war," said Minke de Vroomen, 19, before pausing to add, "But now that Germany is becoming one, it's a little worrying."

Pottermore, more Potter, more reading
I haven't joined Google+, I reluctantly signed up for Spotify, but for Pottermore, I'm willing to get up at a horrendously early hour and refresh my browser indefinitely? Yep. I know, I know! We are Potterheads, and we're proud of it. 😉 I managed to get accounts for both Josh and myself, and we'll just see if the site is worth the trouble. What I do know is that JK Rowling obviously has a brilliant marketing strategist. ~ahem~
With or without Pottermore, things are still All Harry Potter All The Time around here. We've read all the books and seen all the movies, and now Josh is re-reading them. He's planning to be Harry for Halloween, again. We discuss storylines, and theories, and how we would have written things differently if we were in charge. He looks for details he missed in the first read and we talk about in what ways the books differ from the movies, for good and bad. I love what this series has done for Josh's willingness to read, ability to read, and his constant need to read more, more, more. He was always a good reader before, but this year, he became a became a real, pick-up-a-book-on-his-own-and-read-for-hours-at-a-time READER. The one thing he really wanted in his new bedroom – a comfy reading nook. ~love it~
I am constantly on the lookout for other books to fuel his reading bug. He particularly likes scifi but enjoys mysteries too. Series books are a must – he'll read stand-alones but much prefers stories that go on and on. These are a few series and authors he's read recently that we highly recommend:
Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan (We're definitly going to check out his other 2 series, the Heroes of Olympus, and the Kane Chronicles.)
The 39 Clues by various authors (Fabulous for those who like both mysteries and history. Josh can't wait for book 12!)
How to Train Your Dragon (Yes this was a not so great movie, but a fabulous series, especially for readers new to sci-fantasy)
Guardians of Ga'hoole by Kathryn Lasky (We only read the first four and Josh grew out of them before we realized there were many more.)
Swindle by Gordon Korman (He is a seriously prolific author and has some other series we're going to check out.)
The Spiderwick Chronicles by Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black (Again, a mediocre movie but really fabulous books.)
The Last Dragon Chronicles by Chris D'Lacey (We just finished the first book The Fire Within, and Josh is chomping at the bit to go back to the library for the next couple.)
Some series that we've heard great things about and plan to start soon:
Redwall by Brian Jacques
Eragon by Christopher Paolini
Do any of you have recommendations for similar books?
We've already been through all of the Narnia books, The Wrinkle in Time books, everything Roald Dahl ever wrote, almost everything Beverly Cleary ever wrote, and as many boy classics like How to Eat Fried Worms and Frecklejuice that I could find. Sheesh. I'm running out of ideas, someone give me some!
ps. While I'm waiting, I'll be looking into how to officially change my name to my Pottermore nickname – hollyfirebolt. I'm sure you can get used to calling me that, right?
pss. Did any of you also get into Pottermore? Or am I the only crazy one here??
psss. Honest to god I made him do a math sheet this morning because I started to wonder if I'm letting him read too much. I am crazy.
book gluttony
Have any of you ever been to Booking Through Thursday? It's a cute unassuming little blog with a ton of readers and every week they ask a new question for you to answer on your own blog, or in their comments. I've never participated but I've been reading for a long time. I think it's fun to get a glimpse into other people's reading habits, as much as into their gardens! 😉 Yep, I'm nosy.
This week's question made me laugh:
Book Gluttony! Are your eyes bigger than your book belly? Do you have a habit of buying up books far quicker than you could possibly read them? Have you had to curb your book buying habits until you can catch up with yourself? Or are you a controlled buyer, only purchasing books when you have run out of things to read?
Heh. I laughed because (duh!) I have a book problem, as in a serious addiction. I am in fact a book glutton.
I rarely, very, rarely buy new books, but I have a thing for used bookstores, yard sales, flea markets, book swaps, anywhere I can get books cheap. My parent's house is the cheapest…free!…and with a fantastic selection…gee, I wonder where I picked up this habit eh? Ahem – hello Mom & Pop???
It doesn't help that I hate getting rid of books either. I like my books, I like to look at my books, I like to pick them up and remember reading them. If I can't remember much, or if I loved it particularly well, I read it again.
My bookshelves are stuffed, just the way I like them. I keep areas set aside just for all the books I've picked up along the way that I haven't read yet. When I'm in a mood for a particular type; mystery or scifi, history, or yes, even romance, I know I have something sitting there, just waiting for me to pick it up.
I have a pile by my bed, a pile on my desk, a pile next to the couch. I have massive built in book shelves in the basement that my darling husband (and enabler) put in for me. Well, okay, he's not so much of an enabler as a co-glutton. But don't tell him I said so.
I'm turning my kid into a fellow book lover too. He's got heaps of them in his bedroom. Even though we've culled the baby books they still don't all fit on his bookshelf. I always find a mountain of books on the floor next to his bunk bed where he drops them before he turns off the light each night. He loves to troll the used bookstore with me, and I don't think I've ever said no to him when he's asked for a book. It's not the worst way I could be spoiling him, right?
This is one addiction I don't plan to change!

the other book list
Lest you all think I'm pretentious after seeing my list of must read books, today I will give you my list of favorite books/series that are not classics, that I don't think everyone should read, and that I'm kinda embarrassed to admit to loving. But hey, is there anything that makes a better blog post than a little embarrassment? I think not!
You know that other list was a lot of books that I had to read for high school and college, or books that shaped me as a child. Most of them I haven't picked up in a long time. I love them, and I would re-read them all anytime, however, my reading choices these days are, shall we say, a little less intellectual.
I think I started reading pulp regularly about 8 or 9 years ago. I can't blame the boy since he's only 5, I blame the job I was in at the time. I worked for a group of history magazines as a photo editor. I had to read the articles and find the appropriate pictures for publication. When I say I had to read the articles, I mean I had to read and understand them. Some of these were deep, theoretical essays, using a whole new (to me) military style language. Some were battle dissections, and I had to be sure I had the right units and insignia represented at all times. My brain was overflowing with new, difficult material all the time. Information overload.
The last thing I wanted to do when I got home at night was read yet more historical analysis, or even grand literature, or really, pretty much anything that made me think very hard.
I still read voraciously, but I read a ton of trash. I went through my historical romance phase, my chick lit phase, my crappy scifi phase, my vampire phase, and my mystery phase. Don't tell me you haven't done this too! Please? Well, okay, except for my English Teacher sister who never ever reads crap. I've tried to bring her over to the dark side and she still likes reading Beowulf better.
Anyway! Long story to rationalize my terrible reading habits, eh? Oh, the guilt! The wasted hours! Tough. I love my junk fiction and I'm not going to give it up.
So here is my list of my favorite fiction novels/series (in no particular order) that most of you will laugh at. Unless you secretly read like me and haven't admitted it yet. (Please tell me I'm not alone!)
- The Riftwar Saga – Raymond Feist. One of these books, Magician was included in my first list, but it's really not complete without the full trilogy. This is my favorite series of books, ever.
- The Vampire Chronicles – Anne Rice. Now technically this series is something like 12 books long now, but I only really get into the first four originals.
- The MacGregor Series – Nora Roberts. I love Nora Roberts. Yes, these are romance novels, don't judge me. There aren't many romance authors I will still read, but she is one of them. I think I've read everything she's written and I own most of them, but the MacGregor books are my all time favorites.
- Confessions of a Shopaholic – Sophie Kinsella. I laughed so hard at this book I had to do kegels. I didn't particularly like the sequels, but definitely adored this one.
- Stephanie Plum Series – Janet Evanovich. These are laugh out loud mysteries about a chick bounty hunter. DH always knows I'm reading one of these (there's 14 so far) when he finds me laughing hysterically to myself.
- Ill Wind – Rachel Caine. The first book of the Weather Warden series, and my favorite of the bunch. Smart, sexy and supernatural.
- Hannah Swenson Mysteries – Joanne Fluke. Mix cookies and murder and sugar sweet characters and you have this series. Kinda silly but I can't help how much I enjoy them!
- Eye of the World – Robert Jordan. First book in the Wheel of Time science fantasy series. Seriously wordy but very entertaining. The later books in series bog down a bit in the elaborate storylines, but this first one was fantastic.
- Manhunting – Jennifer Crusie. I didn't know which one of Crusies's novels to pick so I picked her first one. I'm hooked, her writing is funny and clever and her characters are adorable.
- The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy – Douglas Adams. Well if it didn't make it onto the other list, it definitely had to be here! Love it. Love it. Love it. Thank you DH for introducing it to me way back when we first met. If you've never had a chance to hear it as a book on tape, do it. It is fantastic to listen to as much as it is to read.
I'm looking back at this list and it occurs to me that I seem to really like books in series. I think I gravitate toward them because when I find characters I love, I don't ever want the story to end!
Okay now, your turn. What do you really like to read? Recommend something good for me in comments. Obviously I like all genres and I need something new to try!

10 must read books
I love books, (you know I love books!) so when I was tagged by my friend Erin for the 10 Books You Must Read Before You Die Meme I knew I had to take my time and really think about it. I admit I'm getting kind of meme'd out, but I really like this one!
Here's my list of the 10 books I think are must reads, in no particular order:
- Little Women, by Louisa May Alcott – this is the the book I read over and over and over again when I was a kid. It's been awhile since I've read it now, but it's still the perfect book to pick up when you need a good cry.
- Pride and Prejudice, by Jane Austen – I love all of her books but this is my favorite. Mr. Darcy is the swooniest character ever created. Oh, my.
- The Lord of the Rings, by J.R.R. Tolkien – all of them together really make one book, don't you think? You can't really like SciFi without liking this classic.
- The Complete Works of William Shakespeare – no I'm not kidding. As hard as it is to read, there is just no way to get around it, they're all good. If I had to choose just one play though, it would be A Midsummer Night's Dream.
- The Little House on the Prairie Series by Laura Ingalls Wilder- again, I can't really split these up, they just have to be read together. I'm currently reading the whole set to my kid and as always the one that has the most impact on me is the one we're on now, The Long Winter.
- Magician by Raymond Feist – not a classic in any way, but my very favorite Science Fantasy novel. It's usually published in two parts, Magician: Apprentice and Magician: Master.
- Animal Farm by George Orwell – some argue that 1984 is a better book, but Animal Farm spoke to me and that's what's important here. The first time I read it was in high school, and honestly, I got the irony of that right away.
- The Iliad by Homer– I was fortunate to read this (along with The Odyssey and Dante's Inferno) in college for one of the best professors I ever had. It was a very tough class but she really helped me break it down and make sense of it. Honestly though, it's a toss up which of the 3 is better.
- The Plague by Albert Camus – um, eww, yet completely fascinating.
- Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank – I know you've all read it, you don't need me to tell you why it's one of the most important books ever written.
Okay, that was harder than I thought it would be! It would have been easier to have a list of twenty – there's so many books I wanted to put here like Adam's Hitchhiker's Guide, Burnett's The Secret Garden and Solzhenitsyn's Gulag Archipelago but they didn't make the final cut!
Rather than tag anyone, I'm going to let you decide if you want to do this meme! So what are the 10 (or 20!) best books you've ever read?
Hey, while we're talking books, are you on GoodReads yet?
have you heard about Schuyler?
Back at Christmas I received a few of books that I had really really wanted. Lucky for me my MIL always checks my Amazon Wishlist when she buys me presents! But then, as much as I wanted to read them, I couldn't focus and I just set them aside and kept on reading blogs instead. Then I started my own blog. After a few months I realized I had not read a real book in ages, and that is so very unlike me. I resolved to set the computer aside, at least a little bit. One of those Christmas books was at the top of my to do list: Schuyler's Monster: A Father's Journey with His Wordless Daughter.
I never should have waited so long to pick it up, because once I did, I couldn't put it down. It made me laugh, it made me cry (a lot), and it made me fall in love with Schuyler all over again. The writing is so beautiful and so is she, that you just can't help it.
See, I've been reading Robert Rummel-Hudson's blog about Schuyler for about 2 years now and it's one of the first feeds I check to see if it's been updated, so I already knew the gist of the story. It's different though, to read bits and pieces here and there, versus reading it all at once on real *gasp* paper, printed with real *gasp* ink.
If you've read either the book or the blog, then you already know exactly what I'm talking about. If you've never seen either, you should, but I warn you, once you start, you'll be hooked. I suggest you start here, then here, then just add his feed to your reader. And, you know, go get the book.

books, books, and eh
I just tried to write a post about why I don't read as many books as I used to. The basic premise was that I just don't have the same attention span since I've been a mother as I did when I was younger. Problem is, I got bored writing it. See? Lack of focus! <Sigh.> Anyway. I've really been trying hard to read more books. (As opposed to all the other brainless crap I do.) I've got a stack waiting for me to dive it. Let's just see if I can unplug more often so I can.
Maybe that'll be my Earth Day pledge. Turn off the TV, put the computer to sleep, and pick up a novel.

Blog Tour - Let Love Shine (Love #3.5) by Melissa Collins ~ Excerpt, Derna's Review and Giveaway
Check out the full series.
Here we are a year later and we couldn't be happier to have Braden's first birthday party tomorrow with our friends and family. Between prepping for the party, me working overtime, and Maddy finishing her last summer course, we've barely been able to stay awake past eight every night.
But watching them dance and laugh in front of me makes it all worth it.
I pull them both into my arms and just hold them for a quick second before Braden starts shimmying out of Maddy's arms. He's caught sight of his Lightning McQueen racecar on the floor and is reaching for it. Handing him his car, Maddy puts him in his bouncy seat. The sight of my wife taking care of our son, talking baby talk and kissing him sweetly should warm my heart. But all I can see is her ass right now. Yep, I want her.
"Get over here." I pull her back to me once Braden is situated and brush her hair out of her eyes. "You look beautiful, you know that?" I trail sweet, soft kisses behind her ear and down her neck.
"Hmmm," she mumbles and it makes me smile against her skin.
Moving from her neck across to her mouth, I feel her lean into my lips. This is something else of which I'll never get tired. Her full, luscious lips pressed against mine; the taste of her sweet mouth still drives me crazy. "Well, hello there." Pulling away from our kiss, Maddy arches her eyebrows as she presses her hips into my groin. The last motion surprises me more than a little. To say that our sex life has been different in the last year is, well, it's an understatement to say the least.
"What? I'm not allowed to want my wife." I grab her ass and push her into my erection a bit more. Our hands roam as the kiss rises in intensity. I fist a handful of her hair and pull her mouth even closer to mine. It's the hottest kiss we've had in a while. Just as her hips start to roll into mine, we're distracted by a sound, and smell, to which we've grown all too accustomed in the last year.
Before I can even move my hands from her body, Maddy's pinching her nose closed. "Not it!" She calls out and laughs.
"Damn, you're getting quick!" It's kind of been our thing to decide who gets to change him. I scowl playfully at her and she just laughs at me.
"Dude, you're killing my game." Braden smiles as I hold him out in front of me. "Holy crap! What the hell did you feed this kid today?" Seriously, he's lethal.
"He ate the same as usual. He's just a stinky little monster." She says the last sentence to Braden in that ridiculous baby talk. You can talk sweet about it all you want; it's still poop.
*I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.*
Let Love shine is a novella that focuses on Maddy and Reid the main characters from Let Love In and Let Love Stay. It was a sweet story that picks up with Maddy and Reid when they leave the hospital with their new baby boy Braden, and it follows them over the next 18 months. You see their fears, concerns, and their happiness as they deal with being first-time parents at a young age.
Reid is working and Maddy is at school, it was great to see the way they have matured and grown as a couple, how they support each other, and only want the best for their family.
Maddy is still sweet, sassy, strong, funny and extremely endearing. I love Reid; he is such a sexy alpha. I love the way he is with Maddy especially when she is feeling unhappy about her body after having Braden.
It was lovely so see that all was well with Momma C and Melanie, they are a great support system for Reid and Maddy. I love Melanie and Maddy's friendship and I'm looking forward to reading Momma C's story. Love that lady!
Overall, Let Love Shine was a well-written, quick, drama free read, filled with sweet, touching and steamy moments. I wish it had been slightly longer, but that being said it was a lovely way to end Reid and Maddy's story.
I've always been an avid reader. Majoring in English Literature was a no brainer. Becoming a teacher and instilling my love for reading into my students was also a no brainer. I've spent the last ten years teaching and I've loved (mostly) every minute of it. When I was home on maternity leave for my third son, I discovered a new genre that sparked my creativity. My passion for writing sprang from my love of reading and once I knew I had a story to tell, I couldn't wait to get it out there. I only hope that my readers enjoy reading my story as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Jody Weis stepped down as police superintendent to pursue job opportunities, not because he wasn't granted a short-term contract to stay in the job until Rahm Emanuel takes office, Mayor Richard Daley said today.
The lack of a contract extension "didn't matter, it had nothing to do with" Weis' decision to step down, the mayor said. "He made a decision for his family, there's nothing wrong with that. He has been a great public servant."
Weis' days were doomed since Emanuel made it clear he would name a new police superintendent after he takes office May 16, but Daley had wanted Weis to serve until then. Weis instead left office on the day his contract expired, saying it would be "selfish" to remain while he pursued other career opportunities.

"Nice digs," mumbled one of the lieutenants as HateMonger's entourage toured Scarecrow's immense laboratory.
"Ought to be," sneered another. "You know who's paying for the joint."
HateMonger himself seemed mildly bored by the endless rooms of test tubes and expensive-looking equipment. "You've shown me all this before, Crane," he said. "Cut to the chase. Bring them out."
"I'm getting to that," Dr. Crane hissed, audibly upset by his employer's tone. "Here, take a seat in the grand ampitheater."
The uniformed group--eight men in all--were ushered to a row of seats an enormous lecture hall.
The lights went down. Crane stood at a podium on the edge of the stage, illuminated by a small reading light. He made a show of clearing his throat and sipping from a complicated-looking bottle of water. "Ladies and gentlemen," he started to say--then caught himself. There were no "ladies" here, and arguably no "gentlemen" either. His audience was the eight highest ranking members of the Honest Men. They looked breathtaking in their uniforms, and Crane had fantasized about at least five of them during the long lonely nights he'd spent engrossed in his work lately.
"It is my honor to present to you the fruits of my labor: four former adversaries of ours, four men who once posed a serious threat to this organiztion, now effectively neutralized once and for all. Behold--"
As he said their names, individual spotlights switched on, bathing each captive in harsh white light as they stood, hooded and bound, on four separate pedestals.
"Green Arrow."
"The Magus."
"And, last and quite possibly now the least.... The Batman!"

An Assessment and Projection of Needed High Technology Training Programs in Colorado. Executive Summary.
Ward, Mary; Wolff, Warren
A study determined labor market needs of high technology firms in Colorado. It assessed such needs in relation to present and projected output of vocational education and training programs and developed recommendations for policies and programs to meet industry training needs at the vocational training level. Data were collected through on-site and telephone interviews. Training needs were documented by first focusing on actual recent hires and then asking firm representatives to project needs for the same job titles over the next one- to three-year period. A great need for engineering technicians and assemblers was projected. Sources of employees projected to be hired were (from greatest to least) other Colorado firms, out of state firms, graduates from vocational education schools, four-year-college graduates, and on-the-job training and classroom training. High technology firms offered recommendations regarding basic skills, technical skills, job skills, cooperative and internship programs, clerical programs, industrial process control, cable technology, computer literacy, computer-assisted design and manufacturing, telecommunications, robotics, biomedical technology, entrepreneurship training, and aerospace. Suggested development actions included establishing (1) high technology training centers, (2) consistency between similar training programs throughout the state, and (3) high quality internship and cooperative job experiences. (The survey is appended.) (YLB)

More than 20 people were killed Sunday in a suicide truck bombing in the Somali capital Mogadishu, police said, in a fresh strike claimed by the Al-Qaeda-linked Shabaab group. "The tally we have made so far indicates that more than 20 people, most of them civilians, were killed in the blast," said Ibrahim Mohamed, a Somali police commander. Abdikadir Abdirahman Adem, director of Mogadishu's AMIN ambulance service, said his staff had transported 48 injured people to hospital.

SEVENTEEN Tops Billboard K-Pop Best Selling Album Chart of the Week!
By Angie Chui | June 08, 2017 08:16 AM EDT
SEVENTEEN is the best performing K-pop album this week on Billboard's World Album Chart. The K-pop group's comeback album "AI1" entered the charts last week and maintained its strong performance this week.
Based on its Billboard World Album Charts standing, SEVENTEEN landed on the #4 spot this week, which is a slight slip from its #2 spot last week. SEVENTEEN is joined by other Korean acts ASTRO, AOMG's Loco and BTS who took the 6th, 7th and 8th spots this week.
SEVENTEEN has earlier been lauded by Billboard for being one of the most innovative K-pop acts in the industry. Its latest comeback "AI1" was praised by reviewers for its courage in changing up the group's style from its normal dancey vibe to take on an edgier approach with its EDM track "Don't Wanna Cry."
"The single (Don't Wanna Cry) and the rest of "Al1's" tracks, show musical depth by adding diversity to the group's sound," Billboard delivered its take on SEVENTEEN's latest mini album. "Two years into their career, it's a surprising, but very welcome, move, and hopefully Seventeen will continue to impress with future releases."
In the heels of their recent success on the charts and on sales, SEVENTEEN is set to embark on its first world tour. The concert series entitled "Diamond Edge" is set to take the boys to North America for the first time.
SEVENTEEN will be performing in Chicago's Rosemont Theater on August 18, Dallas' Verizon Theater on August 23 and Toronto's Massey Hall on August 25. They will close out their concert tour with a performance in New York's Terminal 5 on August 27, Kpop Map reported.
SEVENTEEN's "Diamond Edge" World Tour was a result of fan clamor on mymusictaste.com to bring the boys to North America. Pledis Entertainment, SEVENTEEN's label partnered with MyMusicTaste, Live Nation, and SHOW NOTE to make it happen this August.

Get all of the latest information and then watch the game here live from Denver.
Where: Sports Authority Field at Mile High, Denver, CO
When: 18.00 (GMT)
Watch live: Click here to watch on NowTV from Sky!
Peyton Manning will lead Denver's record-setting offense against Tom Brady and New England for a Super Bowl berth in what is a mouth-watering clash in almost every facet across the field.
New England will visit the Broncos in the American Conference final with the clash between Manning and Brady, in some pundits eyes, to help decide who is the better quarterback of their generation.
The playoff semi-final showdowns will decide the opponents in Super Bowl 48 on February 2 in suburban New York, with Brady seeking a fourth Super Bowl crown and Manning hoping for a second.
Brady leads Manning 10-4 in the all-time rivalry of star quarterbacks, with wins in two of their three playoff meetings.
Brady pulled off the greatest comeback of his career in the regular season when Denver took a 24-0 half-time lead at New England only to have the Patriots rally for a 34-31 overtime win.
But Manning, cut by Indianapolis after neck surgery and signed by Denver in early 2012, has not lost a rematch game since 2007, going 5-0 since then in second chances against teams that beat him earlier in a campaign.
"We're excited about the opportunity," Manning said. "We have certainly come a long way. We've overcome a lot of obstacles to put ourselves in this position. It's certainly very exciting."
The Broncos set an NFL one-season scoring record with Manning setting new NFL passing yardage and passing touchdowns marks. One of his favorite targets is Wes Welker, an ex-Patriots receiver.
"They are great quarterbacks. There aren't too many differences," Welker said in comparing the star passers. "They do a great job of keeping guys accountable with their leadership skills and everything else, the way they go about their business and the way they study (opponents)."
Brady missed Wednesday's practice due to illness but was back at work Thursday.
"I got back out there and got a lot of work in," Brady said. "Everything is important at this point. It's a matter of us focusing on all the aspects of the game. Execution is very important and we have to be our very best to advance."
Manning expects Brady to be at full power Sunday for New England's first road playoff game since 2007, one that figures to be high scoring.
"Our defense is in for a tough challenge," said Manning. "We have to do our part offensively. The thing that jumps out about Tom is his consistency. He's a better player each year than he was the year before."
Patriots coach Bill Belichick can match Tom Landry for the most playoff coaching wins in NFL history by taking his 20th on Sunday.
"It's going to be a challenge but we're looking forward to it," Patriots coach Bill Belichick said. "Manning is a great quarterback but we have got to prepare for the entire team.
He's as good as we're going to face. We'll be out there defending not only him but the 10 guys that are out there with him. They are pretty good too."
The Patriots have not won a Super Bowl since 2005, losing to the New York Giants in 2008 and 2012. The Broncos have not reached the championship spectacle since back-to-back wins in 1998 and 1999.

It seems an obvious application of choice-of-law principles, given Shutts, but the Toyota MDL judge has finally precluded the frivolous economic-loss class action claim that California law applies to the entire nationwide class. The Bloomberg Business Week article quotes POL's own Michael Krauss. Meanwhile, the lead plaintiffs' lawyer makes his putative clients worse off by continuing to insist contrary to scientific evidence that there is a product defect: at this point, the sole cause of any economic loss by the class is the continued insistence by plaintiffs' lawyers that there is something wrong with Toyotas.

sprout salad with ginger citrus dressing.
We love our sprouts, especially in these dark winter months. We grow them right on the counter, and in a few days we have fresh greens packed with goodness. I love them on eggs, bagel & cream cheese, sandwiches...you name it. While I can eat them raw as finger food, my husband needs a bit of inspiration to enjoy them. I have been experimenting with different dressings to make a sprouts salad - with extra taste and zing.
sprout salad with ginger citrus dressing
1 1/2 cups fresh sprouts
1 small carrot, grated
1/2 lemon, squeezed
1/2 orange, squeezed
2 tsp grated pickled ginger (I used THIS grated pickled ginger--not sushi ginger)
1 tsp juice from the pickled grated ginger bottle
1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil (I also tried it with fresh flax oil - yum!)
dash of freshly ground sea salt & fresh pepper
Separate your sprouts a bit so they are not clumped together, and put into 2 salad bowls. Grate fresh carrot over the top of the sprouts. Add all of the dressing ingredients into a small bowl and whisk together. Drizzle over the top! I like adding a few extra shreds of the pickled grated ginger on the top for extra zing. Or a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds. The taste is so fresh - even my husband finished his in no time flat!
ingredients note::
The sprouts blend I used was this: clover, arugula, cress, radish, fenugreek and dill. Crunchy with a bit of a peppery taste!
The ginger I used was grated ginger from the Ginger People which is like a grated pickled ginger. It is not as 'spicy' as the sushi pickled ginger, although either would probably work...as would freshly grated ginger.

The boys love smoothies with breakfast, and so we blend up something yummy at least a few times a week.
We first juice up a few veggies. Today we juiced 2 carrots and 2 stalks of celery.
Then to the blender we add fresh and frozen fruit, yogurt, and the fresh juice...plus any extra goodies.
Both of the boys love making smoothies - I just help chop and operate the blender!
Here is our smoothie of the day.
Juice of 2 carrots and 2 stalks of celery
1 banana
1 cup fresh organic yogurt
1 cup frozen peaches
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
Juice the veggies. Into a blender add the banana, yogurt, frozen fruit, and fresh juice. Add any extras (we added cod liver oil and probiotics). Blend until smooth. Add a little more liquid (juice or yogurt) if it is too thick.
The tasty combinations of fruits and veggies are endless! Just experiment a bit to find your favorites.

creamy carrot soup with ginger.
I know I promised a few other recipes, but last night I made a soup that turned out so great I had to post it right away. It went down to 15 below zero (F) last night - definitely a night for a bowl of warm creamy soup. And the bright orange color is like sunshine in a bowl. This recipe is a variation from The Garden of Eating book.
creamy carrot soup with ginger.
1 Tbsp coconut oil (ghee is fine too)
1 onion, diced
1 tsp ground sea salt
1 Tbsp finely minced fresh gingerroot
4 cups of thinly sliced carrots
2 cups stock...use poultry bone broth, or a good veggie or chicken stock. Here is what I used*
1/2 cup apple juice or cider
1 can good quality organic coconut milk (not "lite")
1/2 cup fresh milk
1/2 tsp yellow curry powder (optional)
Pepper to taste.
Heat a big saucepan or pot on the stove, add your coconut oil and onion. Sprinkle some sea salt to sweat the onions. Stir as it cooks for a few minutes until the onions soften. Toss in freshly grated ginger, stir for a minute. Add carrots, stock/broth, and apple juice/cider. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for about 30 minutes until the carrots are soft.
Remove from heat and add the coconut milk and fresh milk. Add the rest of the salt, a few cranks of pepper, and the curry powder. Use an immersion blender until smooth and creamy, or, puree in a blender in batches. Add additional stock if it is a bit thick.
Return to a low heat (don't boil!) to bring back up to temp. Eat!
We grated some local raw milk aged gouda cheese over the top to serve. YUM!
*My stock for this: Add 3 cups of water to a saucepan, and add 1 sheet of dried kombu. Bring to a boil, and reduce to simmer. Add 2-3 Tbsp fresh miso paste and whisk. Simmer for 15 minutes, remove the kombu piece, and use the liquid in the recipe.
ingredients tip::
Fresh ginger has been used for ages for its many health benefits--not to mention it just tastes great in soups, stir fry, desserts, and drinks.
"Historically, ginger has a long tradition of being very effective in alleviating symptoms of gastrointestinal distress. Modern scientific research has revealed that ginger possesses numerous therapeutic properties including antioxidant effects, anti-nausea effects (great for "morning sickness"), an ability to inhibit the formation of inflammatory compounds, and direct anti-inflammatory effects (arthritis!)."

sourdough, round 01.
Our experiments with bread baking have of course led us to sourdough. We tried a few times to create our own wild starter in the fall, but it didn't work out for us (we plan to try again in spring). So, we bought a sourdough starter and baked our first loaves.
We were encouraged to take our sourdough slowly. It was recommended that when first using it, bakers start with a sourdough recipe which includes yeast. This will help introduce you to the sourdough process, doesn't take quite as long, gives a lighter loaf, and yet still has that good sourdough flavor. This is our beginners loaf. It turned out great - good flavor, not too dense!
Sourdough Bread with Yeast
1 cup (9oz) "fed"sourdough starter (meaning ready to go starter)
1½ cup (12oz) lukewarm water
1 Tbsp sugar
2 tsp (or packet) active dry yeast
5½ cup (to 6 cups) flour (I used organic whole wheat--you can also use bread flour)
1 Tbsp salt
1 Tbsp Vegetable oil (I used coconut oil)
cornmeal to sprinkle on baking pans
Combine all of the ingredients, using only 5 cups of the flour. Using your hands or a bread machine (dough cycle), knead until you form a smooth soft dough. Add additional flour as needed while you knead. Put dough in an oiled bowl. Cover and let rise until doubled, about an hour.
Divide the dough and shape into two loaves. I did one oval loaf and one loaf in a bread pan. Put the loaves into an oiled, cornmeal sprinkled baking sheet or bread pan. Cover again, and let rise another hour - until doubled. Pre-heat oven to 450ºF.
Slash the top of the loaves and bake in your pre-heated oven at 450ºF for about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a rack before slicing.
Sourdough doesn't brown much, so to make the loaf have that nice golden color, brush the loaves lightly with vegetable oil (I used coconut oil) about half way into the baking time.
ingredient tip:
If you would like to make your own wild starter, then read this or this.
Prefer buying one? Here is the one we are using...or see here...or here...
Beyond using yeast with the starter and want a good sourdough recipe? Try here.
This is our first round - I'll be posting on this topic again when we move on to the classic sourdough recipe.

My 4 year old is a picky eater. Always has been. Has to do with scent and texture. He is super sensitive. So when he started eating samples of the stinkiest, most aged cheese when at Whole Foods or the farmer's market, well, we weren't about to let that one go!
Each time we visit somewhere with good cheeses he samples, smells, tastes, and compares. We let him taste and select the best cheese for us. A few times he has conversed with the cheese person at the shop - asking if they have an aged cheddar or something to sample. Anyone who is so gracious as to talk seriously and kindly to a 4 year old about cheeses while cutting him samples of whatever he wants to try is OK in my book. In the end, it is his choice, and we get it and try it. An extra bonus is that there are many excellent local cheeses - well, that and he has good taste in cheese!
Here are two of his favorites this week:
Edelweiss Raw Milk Cheddar & Gouda (WI) - Raw milk from grass fed cattle cheeses.
Each time we visit somewhere with good cheeses he samples, smells, tastes, and compares. We let him taste and select the best cheese for us. A few times he has conversed with the cheese person at the shop - asking if they have an aged cheddar or something to sample. Anyone who is so gracious as to talk seriously and kindly to a 4 year old about cheeses while cutting him samples of whatever he wants to try is OK in my book. In the end, it is his choice, and we get it and try it. An extra bonus is that there are many excellent local cheeses - well, that and he has good taste in cheese!

ingredients, part 1.
I have been thinking it would be fun to post regularly about different items in our pantry. While we try to stay local for our veggies, meats, and dairy, we do expand for base ingredients. I like to find items that add additional nutrients or beneficial goodies to make the meals that much better.
In the winter I like to make stews, soups, and chili in my slow cooker which then makes enough for several meals. Many ingredients I use for those meals are pretty basic - soups will have celery, carrots, garlic and onions combined with stock and some sort of soaked dried bean (lentils, split peas, beans, etc.) or pasta, and then stock and maybe some meat. Those elements are nutritious and taste great, but I like to push the limits a bit and get as much extra goodness in there.
A few ingredients that I like to use include good quality organic miso paste, kombu, organic toasted sesame oil, and celtic sea salt. I know I have mentioned the sea salt before, and I use that for the trace minerals present.
Miso is a fermented paste, made from different ingredients, but the most common one is from just soybeans. Miso contains trace minerals zinc, manganese, and copper, among other things. Miso soup is rich with antioxidants and protective fatty acids, and a good amount of Vitamin E. It also boasts protein and Vitamin B12. It adds a nice rich flavor to stocks.
Kombu is a dried sea vegetable. When kombu is added to the cooking water of dried beans, it helps beans cook faster and aids in digestion. It contains many trace minerals and is a great source of folate, calcium and magnesium.
Toasted Sesame Oil is a good source of calcium, magnesium, iron, phosphorous, vitamin B1, zinc and dietary fiber. Sesame is high in oleic and linoleic fatty acids that are rich in omega 6.
How do you use these items? For me, since I make soups and stews a lot, I use them in my stock base.
Put 4 cups of water on the stove, and add a sheet of kombu. Bring to a low simmer for 15 minutes, remove the kombu piece. Take 1-2 Tbsp. of miso paste and whisk into the kombu water until dissolved. There you have a good base (you can use as is and pour into your soup, or use this instead of water when making a chicken/beef stock).
From there I sautee veggies for the soup/stew or stock. Usually celery, onions, garlic, and carrots--all in a pan with a drizzle of toasted sesame oil (and usually some coconut oil) and a pinch of sea salt. These cook down and I add them to my kombu/miso stock along with whatever other meats and veggies I have chosen. So good!
I made chicken soup this week to help combat the last of the flu coughs and drizzle. I'll post that recipe soon. It is gooooood.

bread making experiments.
We have been experimenting with different grains for our breadmaking. With our grain mill we can grind anything, so we have been trying out different techniques such as soaking, sprouting, drying, and grinding with many different types of grains.
We have been sprouting a grain mix (organic wheat, rye, barley, triticale, oats, kamut, quinoa, sesame, millet and amaranth) and soaking spelt berries this week. Today the sprouted grains were all ready, so we drained well, placed on a cookie sheet, and dried them out. After a few hours in the oven, they were ready to mill into flour.
We baked bread from that freshly ground flour today. It is a little hard and I have to say I don't think I like the flavor of spelt much - a bit strong for me. We will have some of a terrific sourdough starter in the next few days here, and I also have some groats and chestnut flour to try out. Can't wait!
*Note: Click here for a little info about why sprouting grains for bread is good!
"The process of germination not only produces Vitamin C, but also changes the composition of grain and seeds in numerous beneficial ways. Sprouting increases Vitamin B content, especially B2, B5, and B6. Carotene increases dramatically – sometimes eightfold. Even more important, sprouting neutralizes phytic acid, a substance present in the bran of all grains that inhibits absorption of calcium, magnesium, iron, copper and zinc; sprouting also neutralizes enzyme inhibitors present in all seeds. These inhibitors can neutralize our own precious enzymes in the digestive tract. Complex sugars responsible for intestinal gas are broken down during sprouting, and a portion of the starch in grain is transformed into sugar. Sprouting inactivates aflatoxins, potent carcinogens found in grains. Finally, numerous enzymes that help digestion are produced during the germination process." (excerpt from Nourishing Traditions, by Sally Fallon).

counter top projects.
Over the past year, things have been building up. One bowl here, one jar here. What am I talking about? Kitchen experiments and projects. And I'm not talking about the kid kind, although my boys usually participate in whatever is happening in our house.
So, tonight, what is on my counter?
--Coffee Grounds. Always saved for the garden.
--Spelt. Soaking to make bread.
--Sprouts. Grains sprouting to go with the spelt for bread.
--Apple Cider Vinegar. Started out as pressed cider, and after fermenting on my counter for 3 months, it is apple cider vinegar. About ready to strain it!
On most days you can find something - egg shells (to crunch up to go in potted plants), rising dough, oatmeal soaking for the next morning...and while my kitchen is usually clean, there is always something going on!

tv Way Too Early MSNBC February 18, 2013 5:30am-6:00am EST
5:30 am
first some breaking news. music fans are stunned this morning over the death of country star mindy mccready. mccready was found dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. she stayed in the public eye for her relationships with actor dean cain and roger clemens. in 2011 mccready disappeared with her son in a custody battle. then her boyfriend died at her home, reportedly on that same porch where mccready's body was found. the immigration debate took a new turn over the weekend when an immigration proposal being drafted by the white house was leaked to reporters. the plan largely follows themes hinted at by the president, the
5:31 am
timing of its release raised new concerns from republicans about the directions of the discussions. according to this draft, undocumented workers could apply for lawful prospective immigrant visa. after eight years, people who learn english and pay a fine could apply for legal citizen status and then citizenship. it would require businesses to check the immigration status of potential workers. republican senator marco rubio says the white house legislation is "half baked and seriously flawed." he added this. if actually proposed, the president's bill would be dead on arrival in congress leaving us with unsecured borders and a broken legal immigration system for years to come. the president's new chief of staff is dennis mcdonna. he told david gregory on "meet
5:32 am
the press" that the white house would much prefer congress come up with a solution. >> we're doing exactly what we said we'd do. we'll be prepared in the event that the bipartisan talks going on on the hill, if those don't work out, we'll have an option. >> with those negotiations still unfolding on capitol hill, two men challenge iing president ob suggesting the legislation and the leak were for political purposes. >> by putting these details out without a guest worker program without addressing future flow, by giving advantage to those who cut in front of line before immigrants who came here legally, not dealing with border security adequately, that tells us he's looking for a partisan advantage and not a bipartisan solution. >> leaks don't happen in washington by accident. this raises the question that many of us continue to wonder about. does the president want a result
5:33 am
or does he want another chance to beat up republicans so he can get political advantage in the next election? >> of course that is senator mccain. congressman ryan weighed in on another looming deadline playing out on capitol hill. we're barely two weeks away from the $85 billion in automatic budget cuts. they are across the board. that's when they kick in, march 1st. the house budget chairman blamed democrats for the economic showdown. lindsey graham went back to the well of republican opposition to the white house in pitching his plan to deal with the sequester. >> it's the president who proposed the sequester. it's the president who designed the sequester. it's the house republicans who twice passed legislation replacing the sequester with smaller cuts in other areas of government. the president gave a speech showing he would like to replace t but he has not put details out there. that's why i conclude i believe it's going to take place. there's no leadership on the other side of the aisle and no
5:34 am
agreement. >> here's my belief. let's take obama care and put it on the table. you can make $86,000 a year in income and get a government subsidy under obama care. obama care is destroying health care in this country. people are leaving the private sector because companies can't afford to leave obama care. if you want to find ways to save $1.2 trillion over the next decade, look at obama care. don't destroy the military. chuck hagel is days away from a senate vote to consider his nomination as defense secretary. at the earliest that won't happen until lawmakers return to washington next week. they're taking a ten-day recess. sounds like a good gig. senator john mccain, one of hagel's most outspoken critics pushed back against suggestions that his opposition was designed to settle old scores. >> is that to say, senator, it's pay back time for chuck hagel? that's what this process has
5:35 am
amounted to? >> of course not. 99% of it is to do with the positions that senator hagel has taken. p the position hes he's taken on some issues are not only out of the mainstream but to the far left. when we return, i'm sure chuck hagel will have enough votes to be confirmed. other senators have reasonable questions, i mean reasonable. >> but you're not a yes vote for your old friend? >> no. i don't believe he is qualified. but i don't believe that we should hold up his nomination any further. >> safe to say hagel and mccain families won't be sharing a presidents' day picnic today. officials at the white house are raising concerns that the lag in seating the president's cabinet
5:36 am
picks could hurt the country. >> between john brennan and chuck hagel we want to make sure we have those guys sitting in the chairs working. i don't want there to have been something missed because of this hang up in washington. also in washington, tens of thousands of people rallied yesterday in opposition to the proposed keystone pipeline. the demonstrators called on the president to reject the plan. the $5.3 billion project could carry crude oil over 1,000 miles from canada to the gulf coast. with thousands of jobs hanging in the balance, the permitting decision rests in john kerry's state department that will address the proposal in the next several weeks. crowds flocked to st. peter's square this morning to be blessed by the pope in what
5:37 am
was his second to last sunday address. speaking in spanish to a crowd of about 50,000, the pontiff asked the faithful to pray for him as well as the next pope. with just days left until pope b benedict leaves, church law dictates that the conclave to elect the new pope be held no fewer than 15 days after the sitting pontiff's departure. here's the latest from overseas regarding oscar pistorius, he is the owe almoly runner. he is cancelling all future races as he is behind bars. pistorius maintains his innocence as new evidence is collected from the scene. >> reporter: for oscar pistorius, another day from jail brought visits from his sister, a local preacher. >> he was starting to cry, i
5:38 am
came to pray with him. >> reporter: also his agent. >> my visit was in a professional manner to discuss his career, and the plans we had made this year. also to visit him as a friend and give him moral support. >> reporter: the press here has been overflowing with every detail they can find. newspapers quote police sources saying they believe reeva steenkamp was first shot in the bedroom and then through the bathroom door, that he apparently broke through to try to help her. that a cricket bat is considered a key piece of evidence. there's an interview with someone identified as his best friend saying he got a frantic call from pistorius at 3:55 that morning. i said what are you talking about? he then repeated himself. there's been a terrible accident. i shot reeva. another publication referring a sworn police affidavit given by a woman who said she was also called by pistorius at 3:20 a.m.
5:39 am
the report claims she arrived to see pistorius carrying a gravely injured steenkamp down the stairs and they both tried to save her life. his family strongly denies the shooting was at all intentional. his father is quoted as saying he has zero doubt his son reacted on instinct believing steenkamp was an intruder. steenkamp says of pistorius that he must be going through things we don't know about. there's no hatred in our hearts. now with concerns over his emotional state, pistorius waits in a cell, accused of the most serious crime. >> pistorius is expected to be back in a south african courtroom tomorrow. as always, let us know why you're awake. it's not just presidents' day for good reason for you to get up at 5:30 a.m. shoot us an e-mail at
5:40 am

Old ways of disaster recovery may soon be replaced completely by companies that are more willing to work with online data backup and cloud solutions. Network World Editor in Chief John Dix spoke with IBM Distinguished Engineer Richard Cocchiara, who said off-site data backup has been one of the biggest changes in the industry. Sending data away from where it is mainly being used can be much better for protection.
"Then there are services that allow clients to fail-over servers," he wrote. "The cloud is very good now for Wintel servers, where you can replicate your data and fail-over relatively quickly. So in addition doing replication of data to another server, we still recommend backup because you can recover individual files to a point in time. "
With data backup, failover servers and the ability to have a data center further away from the company, online and cloud backup should be great options for an organization which may be looking for something a bit different.
Another big benefit is that this more high-tech way of backing up data can be just as helpful for small companies as larger enterprises. Businesses that were previously only able to backup their server in full without picking and choosing what is backed up can now more easily replicate data and recover it when they need to .
"They can back up data or replicate servers to a remote site, and then fail-over the servers and network to the remote site in the event of a disaster," he said. "So it's giving small and medium-sized businesses much more sophistication."
How to chose a solution
Small Business Computing contributor Jennifer Lonoff said when companies are trying to figure out what kind of online data backup solution to go with, they need to first look at what their business needs and what it has in place. If there is not much of an IT staff already nailed down, the easiest and most cost effective way to may be to go for a managed online solution. Industry professional Patrick Corrigan told the news source that smaller companies should definitely be using online as a way to backup information.
"Typically what I'll recommend to smaller businesses is that they take critical data and make sure it's backed up in some local fashion, whether it's to CD, DVD, tape, or removable disk or some type of backup server," said Corrigan. "They [should also] take the same critical data and back it up to some online service."
