Thank you for reading our snowboarding for newcomers section on purchasing a snowboard and gear.

From novices to specialists, you are going to hear time and once more skiers saying that boots are the most vital piece of gear. All Burton EST bindings also come in a Re:Flex" version which are compatible with other brand's boards. Just ascertain the bindings size to what range your approximate shoe/boot size falls inside – about.
Some Hybrid Rocker Profiles will and some won't have rocker once again out towards the guidelines to help with a extra catch-free ride. Wrist guards can assist protect your wrists from injury through a fall while you are mastering how to snowboard. Remember, the foam in your boots will pack out slightly as you break them in, so you want them tight at the beginning but not painful. These boards have a longer nose for powder, typically have a stiffer tail than a nose and, usually, the stance is set back from the center of the board.
Our snowboarding for newcomers section included this part as quite a few web pages forget to mention this simple but essential aspect.

For several novices this versatile board is very good to discover on and particularly if you want to ride on any terrain and you commit most of your time on the snow, not carrying out jumps and tricks in the air. No have to have to be fanatical about 1 or two centimetres distinction here, so if your measurement is 157 cm but you see the snowboard of your dreams and it is 159 cm then that is still fine.

Sheila Serafino saved one of her best efforts for last.
Girls Lacrosse
Sheila Serafino saved one of her best efforts for last.
Hamilton-Wenham's senior goaltender stopped 30 shots in a 11-7 win over Manchester-Essex in the Generals season finale last Thursday, and found out later that she was named the Cape Ann League's co-Player of the Year. Serafino deserved it, helping Hamilton-Wenham to a 9-4 mark to finish the season, earning the eighth seed in the Division 2 East bracket.
The game was played after the Chronicle's deadline, but check www.hamiltonwenhamchronicle.com/sports for updated scores and tournament information this week.
Top performances for the Generals win over Manchester-Essex included Jamie Erdman, who recorded a team high four goals while Olivia Shiland added three, Cassie Penta added a pair while Dana Wilfahrt and Deb Tam each contributed with a goal apiece.
"(Serafino's) done a great job, and she's been solid for us,'' said coach Daphe Faldi. "Everyone's contributing and we pretty much dominated from start to finish."Girls Tennis
Despite a good effort by first singles player McKenzie Love, the Generals lost, 4-1, to Manchester-Essex. As a result, the Generals finished the season 12-2 overall mark and will now prepare for the Division 2 North tournament.
"The girls are playing very well, and I'm looking forward to the tournament,'' said coach Deb Evans. "It's been a great regular season, and we're hoping we can continue on with our success."
At first singles, Love, who improved her personal record to (12-1) battled to a three set 6-4, 4-6, 7-5 over senior Jordan Evans.
"The match was very long and very competitive,'' said Evans. "It was a great victory for McKeznie, since Jordan is a senior, and she's a notoriously strong player who has received lots of media attention."
In other singles action, Molly Hines suffered a 6-0, 6-1 defeat to Elly Van Fassen at second singles, while Christie Butler fell to Nicole Neff 6-3, 6-2 at third singles.
In doubles action, the duo of Melissa Hines and Margot Hinchey fell in a 7-5, 6-0 defeat while the tandem of Kelsey Shuka and Hannah Hebert also lost in a 6-1, 6-4 affair.
"Manchester-Essex is a great team, and they're one of the best programs in the state,'' said Evans. "It was tough without our second singles player (Kate Chamberlin), but the girls played hard and I'm very pleased with their efforts."
After advancing to the quarterfinal round last year, Evans is hoping for another strong showing in the tournament.
"The girls are playing well,'' said Evans. "We just have to keep it going in the tournament."

With a young and untested team, the Generals season was in a cloud of uncertainly when the season began.
But after escaping with a thrilling 3-2 season ending win over Manchester-Essex., the Generals have posted one of their finest campaigns in the program's history. With the win, the Generals finished with an astounding 12-1 mark and are in the midst of preparing for the Division 2 North tournament.
"I'm very happy with the season,'' said coach Joe Maher. "We have a great group of guys that just work hard and bond together. It's been an incredible run."
At first singles, Noah Hebert delivered a tight, but solid 6-4, 6-3 victory, while Nick Petrou cruised to a 6-1, 6-1 straight set win. With the match and victory on the line, the Generals were guided by the second doubles' duo of Jimmy Walcott and David Rowe, who breezed through to a 6-2, 6-2 straight set win.

After posting a 2-2 mark over the final two weeks of the season, the Generals held on to advance to the Division 3 East sectional state tournament. With a 9-9 mark, the 13th seeded Generals hosted Arlington Catholic in a preliminary round showdown Tuesday, but results were not available at press time.

Even with the .500 mark, coach Jim LaSelva was optimistic about his team's chances.
"We faced some real tough competition earlier in the season, and I think that's going to help us in the tournament,'' said LaSelva earlier in the week. "We're ready for the tournament."
In a 12-7 victory over Ipswich on May 16, Ryan Gendreau and Jake Cotter recorded three goals each, while Jay Scuteri added a pair. Other goal scorers included Casey Coyler, Matt Sweeney, Ryan Hanna and Pat Ford, who added a goal apiece in the win. Minding the net, the goal-keeping duo of Dan Castro and Kyle Harring combined to make 15 saves.
Following a slow start, the Generals couldn't recover and suffered a 6-4 decision to Triton Regional on May 21. Failing to register a goal in the entire first half, the Generals rallied for four goals in the final two quarters, but fell short en route to the defeat. Offensively, Gendreau, Scutero, Cotter and Corey Daff each added a goal apiece. Goalkeeper Kevin Serafino stopped 13 shots in the losing effort.
In the non-league season finale against Austin Prep, the Generals suffered a tough 9-8 overtime loss last Thursday. After delivering the game-tying goal with just nine seconds remaining in regulation, the Generals failed to hold the momentum as the Cougars notched the game-winner just 45 seconds into the extra session.- Compiled by Mike Rubin

Believe it or not, there was a time long, long ago when Tito Ortiz was something other than a dopey, stuttering mass of injury excuses and self-congratulatory speeches — "The pre-Jenna Era," as it's sometimes called. Yes, "The Huntington Beach Bad Boy" preferred to let his fists, knees, and elbows do the talking for him back in the late nineties/early aughts, and we respected him so, so much more for it. Of course, he got off to a rough start in his first night as a professional fighter, when he kneed Guy Mezger into submission and *still* lost at UFC 13 on May 30th, 1997 — 17 years ago today.
To be fair, Ortiz's actual MMA/UFC debut came just hours earlier, and ended in a 31-second TKO of Wes Albritton. But it was his main event showdown with Mezger, a Pancrase veteran and member of the Lion's Den camp, that would go down as the first of many controversial moments in the future Hall of Famer's career.
After besting Mezger on the feet in the early-going and brushing off his takedown attempts, Ortiz unleashed a vicious barrage of knees to Mezger's noggin', eliciting what many believed (ringside announcers Bruce Beck and Jeff Blatnick included) to be a tap from Mezger. Big John McCarthy would eventually intervene to check the cuts on Mezger's head, where he would clarify his belief that Mezger was not tapping, but rather attempting to block Ortiz's knees (a fact that remains disputed to this day). In any case, Big John would restart things on the feet and Mezger would secure a fight-ending guillotine shortly thereafter, sparking a decade-long rivalry between Ortiz and the Shamrock brothers.
Ortiz wasn't the only future Hall of Famer making both his promotional and professional debut that night. Up in the heavyweight division, Randy Couture would breeze past Tony Halme and Steve Graham to win the evening's heavyweight tournament, finishing both men in less than 5 minutes total fight time. As luck would have it, Ortiz and Couture would meet in the octagon some six years later at UFC 44, with the light heavyweight title on the line. It would not end well for Ortiz.
But that was then, this is now, and tomorrow is yesterday (or something like that), so check out videos of Couture's tournament-winning fights, as well as Ortiz's quick win over Albritton and a few other select fights from UFC 13 below, courtesy of Vimeo user Diesel Strongboy.

Recently one of Younivate's clients ordered some 1,400 units Of YouniVu which saved the client hundreds of thousands of dollars in annual GSM/GPRS fees.

As the 13th pick of the 1991 MLB Draft, the first major league Manny Ramirez appearance was for the Cleveland Indians as the team's right fielder. Since then, Manny Ramirez has gone on to be synonymous with Boston Red Sox baseball. In 2004, Ramirez, alongside his good friend, David Ortiz, helped the Red Sox end their 86 year World Series, and three years later, Ramirez did the same thing – brining home a second World Series title to the Boston Faithful.
In addition to his two World Series rings, Ramirez has led the American League in batting average, home runs, and runs batted in. Ramirez is also a nine-time Silver Slugger Award winner and a 12-time All-Star selection.
Although Ramirez spent many years as one of the most recognizable faces on the Boston sports scene, these days a Manny Ramirez appearance at the plate features him wearing Dodger Blue. That's because in 2008, after a falling-out with Boston management, Ramirez requested a trade and was sent to Los Angeles in one of the most storied baseball trades of recent years.
**Manny Ramirez Speaker**
Aside from an amazing baseball career, Ramirez spends time supporting various charities including The CHARLEE Program, making his involvement in humanitarian efforts a perfect Manny Ramirez speaker topic to complement discussions of baseball.
**Manny Ramirez Appearance**
A Manny Ramirez appearance, whether it's on the field or in front of the media, is known to be anything but "normal." In fact, Ramirez's antics are so often expected that the media and the general public have coined a phrase for them: "That's just Manny being Manny."
**Manny Ramirez Endorsement**
Included in the list of Manny Ramirez endorsement deals is World Series Baseball '96 for Sega Genesis and MVP Baseball 2005 for EA Sports. And considering Ramirez's well-known and jubilant personality, there's no telling what kinds of other Manny Ramirez endorsement deals might come next. In fact, Ramirez even endorsed a charity wine called Manny Being Merlot.

An ambitious new Facebook game titled Miscrits: World of Adventure, is set to evolve the Facebook platform for real game lovers. The game is created by social games innovator, Broken Bulb Studios, who's known for starting the city-building genre on Facebook with the game My Town. Miscrits: World of Adventure takes Facebook games into an in depth social experience that uses the platform to facilitate live multiplayer gaming.
In Miscrits: World of Adventure, players have a fully customizable character and are free to explore an enchanting world called "Miscria." Players set off on an adventure to find and capture Miscrits, which are powerful magical creatures. As players gather resources, train their Miscrits, and battle against other live Facebook players, their Miscrits will evolve into larger more powerful creatures. With over one hundred unique Miscrits, Miscrits: World of Adventure has a depth which is rarely seen on the Facebook platform.
"Our goal was to create a captivating and incredibly fun game for players," says President and founder Jason Moore, "but also to step beyond the status quo on Facebook and give players a game with significant depth, unbelievable art, and the ability to engage with other real players in live, interactive gameplay. That is what social gaming should be all about, and we feel we've reached that with the release of Miscrits."
The early results of the effort appear to be well worth it from the players' perspective. While the game has only been live for a few weeks, it has already grown to over half a million players with over 100,000 of them playing each day. Miscrits has also received 10,000 reviews from players at an average rating of 4.9 out of 5 stars.
The technology behind Miscrits: World of Adventure was created from the ground up in order to achieve both the vivid world and the live player-verses-player battles on Facebook. By keeping all the game development in house, Broken Bulb Studios was able to allow says the risk in building such a large scale Facebook game is well worth acknowledges the risk in developing such a large scale game on Facebook, but says they are confident that players will play great games no matter what platform it's on. , but is confident that real players will give it a shot. with the amount of resources needed to build Miscrits: World of Adventure on a platform highly touted for its low cost entry to the market.
While the game currently has over 100,000 virtual square feet, 100 unique Miscrits, and over 20 minutes of original score, Broken Bulb Studios has plans to soon double the size of the game.
Future releases include soon to open Mount Gemma, a mountainous landscape filled with 60 new Miscrits, extensive player customization, new abilities and attacks, and a host of additional features that will add to the current experience.
"We have a lot of special things in store for Miscrits. There are so many features that aren't even in the game yet," says Moore. "We chose to hold onto some aces up our sleeve so that we could really let the game evolve on its own. It really is going to be an awesome ride for all of our players."

Diabetic Living - Fall 2010 - Review
I just love "Diabetic Living" magazine which I first picked up at my local library with the back issues and was so impressed that I subscribe to it. For copyright reasons I don't share the articles but there should be nothing wrong with at least sharing some of the highlights of the articles for you to see what's in each issue. In Fall 2010 look for the following:
New Diabetic Diagnostic Criteria… The American Diabetes Association announced new guidelines for diagnosis of diabetes including an a1c greater than or equal to 6.5%. The fasting glucose reading of greater than 126 mg/dl, after 2 hours (or random test) to be greater than 200. I believe these are more liberal figures than past guidelines for diabetics.
Good Morning Stretches… the issue features some bed and chair exercises for at home stretching.
How to Lower Morning Highs… this article offers tips on lowering the morning highs and causes for it.
Could Your Type 2 Diagnosis Be Wrong? this article addresses latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) and what to do if you are actually a type 1 with a type 2 diagnosis.
Secrets of Long Term Losers… 6 weight control behaviors.
Treating Tryglycerides - self explanatory
Breakfast to Go … various build a meal ideas for quick and easy breakfasts
Store Brand Savings … tips on using Walmart and Target house brands for cheaper and healthy alternatives to name brand good food options with recommendations.
Sweet To The Core … apple recipes Golden Rice Pudding w/ 23 g carbs, Apple Strudel w/ 21g carbs, and a Caramel Crunch Apple Crisp recipe that I wish were scratch n stiff cuz it looks so good!
All in all this issues features alot of amazing sounding (and looking) recipes that are diabetic friendly.
6 replies
Gabby-try accessing the magazine on-line, the articles are usually there. All the best, Carol
Carol… very good point. This article, however, doesn't appear to be on their website, http://www.diabeticlivingonline.com; however, there are some excellent recipes and informational articles that are on the site.
I am very interested in the "lowering Morning Highs" article. Would you be so kind as to share some of the tips that were in the magazine? I would love to get help in that area. I think I have tried everything.
Most of the article is deals with the various chemicals in the body (insulin, amylin, incretins and glucagon) and their effects on glucose; how the system works; and what happens during sleep. In short the tips on lowering the morning/overnight readings include medication, weight loss, nibbling before bed, exercise, and to mix/match the solutions. The two at-fault reasons for morning highs are the dawn phenomenon and the somogyi effect (sound like sci-fi thrillers?) and what happens in the body overnight. What you do can make up for the hormonal imbalance of type 2 to give better morning readings.
My dad was saying something that the nurse at the doctors office about these standards. I think it is too leniant for the 2 hours after meals. That is just way too bogus. This is going to leave a lot of open room for misdiagnosing of patients. The doctors have always questioned whether I was type 1 or type 2. Than to find that the C-Peptide test is not very accurate at all for determining what type of diabetes one has. Which further makes me question what type of diabetes I have. Gonna have to look into those apple recipes though. We love apples in our house. How about a recipe for Whole Wheat Banana Blueberry Muffins. These are incredible and low carb.

Surgery is such a scary word in any context. Whenever a Doctors tells you surgery is needed, you know the situation is serious and unfortunately the fix could not be remedied naturally. I find that as I get older, there is always some body part that needs a second look or attention. I would like to think that I've treated my body well in the last thirty seven-years, but it is just the nature of getting older. I look forward to the day when God calls us Home and we are given a new body on the new Earth. Then, we will truly have no pains, no illnesses, no worries about calories or gray hair and wrinkles (which I have more of these days!). Yeah, that day will be wonderful! Until then, I will continue to do my best to take care of the body that has been given to me temporarily.
As I prepare for my surgery on Tuesday, I can only hope and pray that all will go well. I had my first surgery in November of last year, so this will be my second surgery. As with most things, there are always risks to consider and be aware of. You have to trust your Doctor and rest assured that you are in good hands, literally.
"…and you could die"
When I was pregnant with both of my daughters, thankfully I did not have to have a C-section. My water broke both times and before delivery I did choose to have an epidural. I will never forget the two rather odd, anesthesiologist. My first anesthesiologist poked me in the back about five times till he got my needle for my epidural inserted right. The second anesthesiologist spoke very monotone as he told me of all the risks. With each "worst case scenario" risk, he ended each sentence with "…and you could die". I remember looking at my husband with wide eyes as if to say, "say a prayer and please watch this man closely?" So, I clearly understand the seriousness of any surgical procedure, I just have to continue to pray that it goes well and try not to think of the worst case scenario: "…you could die".
What kind of surgery?
When I arrived to Hawaii this past June, my body was doing some weird adjustments. You would think that moving to a tropical island paradise, it would be impossible to get sick or be hurt. Along my right arm and around part of my neck, I discovered a cluster of itchy bumps. I saw my new Primary Care Provider (PCM) to have it checked out. I was prescribed a lotion to clear it. I don't know what it was, but it did eventually cleared after a few months.
Also around this same time, I developed a bump under my tongue that would swell up and then decrease depending on the foods I ate or drank. I never could pinpoint any one thing that triggered it and I hoped it would eventually go away on its own.
Unfortunately, over the last few months, this has become larger and more painful, feeling like a hard piece of candy stuck underneath my tongue, effecting my speech and my eating. My new dentist referred me to an oral surgeon who then referred me to an ENT Doctor. I also turned to Google to do a little research on my own. This annoying bump was from a clogged salivary duct. It was referred to as a Ranula. " The term ranula comes from the Latin word, rana, meaning frog, and describes a blue translucent swelling in the floor of the mouth, similar looking to the underbelly of a frog." So, in medical terms:"a ranula usually stems from trauma to the sublingual gland, leading to mucus extravasation and formation of a pseudocyst or term- mucus escape reaction." (http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/847589-treatment)
So, to my understanding, because of a clogged salivary duct leading to the formation of a cyst, I will have to have surgery to unclog the salivary duct. Although the Doctor has told me that the procedure only take about thirty minute, it is still surgery in my mouth. I was hoping it would be something that would easily and quickly resolve itself, but I'm just grateful I'm able to take care of this issue now before it gets worse.
Of course, I have many concerns and worries about cut nerves and surgery to my mouth. I was told that the mouth heals quickly. I should be fine as long as I am recovered by Christmas dinner!
No time is ever a convenient time for a surgery
No time is ever a great time to have a surgery and especially during this Christmas time.
The week is jammed pack with Christmas activities at my girl's schools, my husband's Army work schedule, and my In-Law and family flying in to spend the Christmas holiday with us. I am grateful they were able to schedule the surgery now while I have my hubby here to help. After the Christmas holiday and the start of the new year, my hubby goes off to training (such as the life of military pilot) and it's back to single parenthood for a few weeks. Us moms rarely make the time for ourselves and we should more often. This is a priority and thankfully the surgery is minor and will not take long to recover. I have to be at my daughters school for an event the next morning after my surgery. I may end up looking like a chipmunk with swollen cheeks, but that should be about it.
Prayer Request
Whether its major or minor surgery, its surgery nonetheless. Naturally, I am a little worried about what tomorrow will bring. I trust I am in good hands with both of my ENT Doctors. I believe in prayers and know God will watch over me. I do also ask you all pray for all involved Tuesday morning. I ask for prayers for my doctors hands and that God will guide them. I ask for prayers over this surgical procedure in my mouth that there will be no issues that come up as a surprise, no nerve damage, or have any other complications come from operation of this ranula. And, please say prayers over the recovery time, praying I will heal quickly and that this clogged salivary duct will not come back!
Thank you friends!

And yes, this is a revisit of the 'character' in ARKEO #5.

This is an interesting idea. I'm afraid, however, that I don't find it 'there' enough for me. I don't know if it's because I've been thinking of the drain covers as separate items, or whether a narrower range of colours would work better to my eye, ... but for me they don't feel as if they really belong. You have a piece in your slide show: ARKEO #3 where similar elements fit the fundamentals of the design, and could not be removed without the design's disintegration. I find that to be a powerful statement.
Generally I have belonged to the school of behaviour which says that if one does not have anything good to say, one should say nothing. However, I am beginning to believe that that perhaps is hypocritical. We all have our peculiar points of view, and in any case a piece of work need only satisfy the maker to be good.
Marja-Leena, how charming and intriguing, many things in there and at the same time such harmony!
Olga, I appreciate your observations! I can feel ambivalent about some of my own works at times, sometimes liking them, sometimes not, often changing my mind over time. For a long time I hesitated posting this because the photo really does not do the piece justice at all. I know this medium is a challenge at the best of times, but this piece looks quite weak here when it's compressed for the web, though it may be my own inexpertise. Yet, being part of a series, I felt it had to take its place there with the others. More to come as I slowly catch up...
Leena, kiitos paljon!

6 Ways to Kill Your Blog
The importance of blogging cannot be stressed enough in the social-content marketing arena. If you're at all familiar with Internet advertising (which I assume you are) you'd know that a well-formed, high-end business blog is capable of pushing a brand's products and services into the customers' view more than pay-per-click advertising, social media, and other online marketing techniques.
As a blogger-for-hire, I've come to realize the most critical aspect that separates the good and the other business blogs: Mistakes.
It's not easy to write informative, engaging content from your brand's perspective to attract online readers. But instead of going into content creation and the finer points of blog promotion, I thought I'd share my 6 biggest pet peeves, flops, and fails of blogging that make the entire point moot.
1. Not knowing your place.
Smaller businesses — especially those in niche industries like concrete supply or whatever the case may be — are pups in the blogging community. To effectively write content that helps you show up in local searches that answers questions, you need to understand your place in the market and the customers you're after.
If I went to some niche business blog, for instance, I'd expect to find posts that are about that specific industry and business, not posts written to cash in on link-bait and unrelated hot topics.
2. Utterly terrible design.
This isn't 1997 anymore. Smaller companies no longer need to ask Billy, the high school sophomore down the street, to make a website for them.
WordPress is, in my opinion, both the bane and boon of blogs. On one hand, a semi-decent theme can be turned into a colorful, well-designed website that allows writers to easily post and manage content. On the other hand, pre-made themes may lead to laziness. How many blogs have you visited with pre-formatted feature images, anyway?
3. Cluttered content, messy features.
"Clutter" includes two different elements:
- Content: Cluttered content is dense, unspecific, and illustrates that a business blogger is just trying to put words on a page.
- Features: Features include side bars and navigation, social media buttons, and other aspects on a blog.
Both types of clutter lead to unprofessional blogs. You don't want people winding up on your page and comparing you to the hobby blogger, do you?
4. Inconsistent posting.
Consistency is what I use to tell if a blog is actively attempting to use content to capture readers and — hopefully — leads. Often, overwhelmed marketers will publish posts infrequently, like every other month or so, or whenever their boss tells them to get back at it.
It is crucial for bloggers to set calendars and stick to them, otherwise known as the only way to attract return readers.
5. Being too invested in yourself.
What separates a business blogging from hobby-blogging about your trip to New Zealand? The intent of the content.
Untrained bloggers risk publishing content that is too personal and off-track. This goes back to an earlier statement I made about writing content that answers a reader's questions and informs upon a subject. For a niche business, this may be ways to use a product, why this particular service is necessary, or how a company is affected by some breaking piece of news.
While it's important to write from a conversational first-person perspective, business blogs need to inform first and foremost.
6. Over-sharing, bad writing, and others…
I lied about the "6 tips for killing a blog." So to cut this off without wasting time, here are a handful of "must avoids" for struggling business blogs (or to-do priorities for blogs seeking suicide):
- Posts deserve to be shared on social media. However, over-sharing links on Twitter, Facebook, and other platforms really bugs your followers.
- Not editing, revising, re-reading, and editing again leads to unprofessional mistakes and content that was obviously written by someone rushed.
- Solely writing on topics based on other blogs and articles is unoriginal. Limit these types of posts.
- The format of a post (including media elements, paragraph spacing, etc.) is as important as the content. Make sure to preview posts and learn how to use your blogging platform.
- Not responding to comments, social shares, and user interaction isn't helping anyone.
- The call-to-action (how you transmute readers into customers) is tricky. Limit the advertorial text in every post — if your content's good enough, it'll sell itself.
I can go on and on (and I will), but for now, I'm curious what your biggest blogging pet peeves are.

This is pretty much wrong, so is your statement about Alpha Centauri.
Why do you think we're going to Mars and digging holes, searching for possibly still existing (or formerly existing) life on Mars?
In the last few decades...we made TONS of discoveries which entirely contradict what you just said
we found TONS of possibly "Earth like" planets, one or more of them also around Alpha Centauri.
We found a possibility for life on some planet's moons, like Mars' Europa. We found possibly microbes on meteorites and a TON of other evidence that life is out there. RIGHT NOW we do *not* know whether somewhere in our solar system is life or not.

If you want people to take you seriously, you need to start thinking critically.
I don't hear anyone claiming they have seen unicorns and leprechauns. I hear people, sometimes masses of people claiming to have witnessed aerial objects or unexplained objects in flight. To me that is real even if the witnesses are incapable of flagging down or leaping in the air to capture these objects (I am being facetious, but I hope you see my sarcasm).
There are probably millions of accounts of UFO sightings but I can tell you I have yet to hear someone say they have actually seen a unicorn.

I was discussing this the other night with a chat buddy in ats chat the other night, it was actually a pretty constructive conversation.. I think there are things that exist that we cannot sense, with eyes, touch, taste, ears etc. Different vibrations etc. I mean if I created Life, I would defiantly want to be Beyond its understanding forever, I mean that is the rule..
Just my opinion, I think we will remain alone in understanding what this is we live in, or life, or ourselves for that matter.. I find it humorous on how much WE, because we all do it, think we know, when we do not even understand why or the how, or even the when we are even here.

Tesco's struggles continue
On a day where crude oil traded below $67 a barrel and gold broke back above $1230, it was going to take something special for a commodity stock not to be the headline act. Step forward Tesco! Four profit warnings within the last twelve months have seen the company's value half; not the way new CEO Dave Lewis would have wanted to celebrate his 100th day in the hot seat.
Regardless of the major technical support levels reached, the hurdles of the ongoing FSA investigations and the crucial Christmas sales period have seen raging debates on trading floors over the company's status as either the seasons must have buy or an end of range product heading for the bargain bucket.
Offering a little light on an otherwise gloomy day is Randgold Resources, heading higher as gold advances, driven by the aggressive selloff seen in all the major equity indices.
Dow loses ground
The Dow Jones is down 164 points at 17,688 as the US has been unable to escape the negative sentiment sweeping across global equity markets.
The political uncertainty in Athens can be felt in Wall Street, as financial stocks are thrown into turmoil by Antonis Samaras' snap election which prompted traders to dump banking stocks.
If there is ever a time to ensure your banking system is adequately financed it is right before another possible round of the eurozone debt crisis. The Federal Reserve is getting its house in order by ensuring US banks can cope under severe circumstances.
ConocoPhillips is higher today after the company revealed plans to cut back on capital expenditure yesterday. It is the first major US oil company to reshuffle some of it projects in light of the declining oil prices.
Gold pushes through $1,220
Gold prices have surged heading into the London close following a widespread softening in global indices, continuing a two-day loss, which has again brought global growth concerns to the fore. It has begun to regain its shine after benefitting from a sharp turnaround in global risk sentiment that has now begun to favour the safe-haven asset. The yellow metal smashed through its $1,220 level that acted as long-term resistance for some time, pushing to a high of $1,238 on the day.
WTI prices continued to head lower today, again, on the back of global deflationary concerns, returning to its 2009 level of $62.25/barrel.
Yen surges
Widespread support for the Japanese yen resulted in a surge against the majority of its major counterparts – a move that is being sustained into the London close with the biggest decline seen in USD/JPY, which has undone a week's worth of a bull-run in an afternoon. It is currently down -1.55% on the day at $118.74, having been as low as $117.94 – a level which has previously acted as an area of consolidation.
The USD was among the day's worst performers against the majority of its major counterparts despite a positive print in US JOLT's data that came in at 4.834m, up from its previous level of 4.685m month on month.

I do, I really do. I've just been a bit overwhelmed lately. The baby is now 14 months old and has been walking since 10 months old. Now she is practically running. It has been quite a challenge keeping up with her and her antics while also managing the other two. My little guy is full of little boy energy and the ideas that come into his head always catch me by surprise. The oldest just turned six and seems to have that confused with 16. The moodiness is just off the charts!
These signs of growth and life in our home have also been accompanied by lots of celebrations. We had a Christmas Eve dinner with about 17 folks over. The baby's first birthday was attended by a total of 32 family and friends in January. Lil' Miss' birthday a couple of weeks ago was smaller, with 8 little girls, 2 little boys and 9 adults. And now we are gearing up for Easter Dinner. Phew!
I am trying to figure out how to keep everything together. Dinner, laundry, homeschooling, cleaning, outside activities (a must for the little guy), my own hobbies of scrapbooking and sewing, church, Bible reading, prayer time. There just doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day!
I am thankful however to have such busy days and a full life. I am always surrounded by family and friends and I know that is not the case for everyone. I am truly grateful for all that I have been blessed with. I just need a little help learning how to be a good and faithful steward of all these blessings!
Oh, and of course, I'd really like to keep up with my blog as well! Any advice?

A medical team from Tennessee today described the diagnosis and medical care of the first patient sickened in the ongoing fungal meningitis outbreak, the case that triggered an investigation by the state's public health officials and led to the uncovering of the problem.
The patient, who died of a stroke after the fungus invaded the blood vessels in his brain, was a man in his 50s who started having headache and neck pain about 4 weeks after receiving the last in a series of epidural injections of methylprednisolone for low-back pain. Doctors from Vanderbilt University School of Medicine who were involved in the case reported their findings today in an early online article in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM).
Since the man's infection was identified, the number of people sickened in the multistate outbreak has climbed to 271, with 14 more cases reported since yesterday, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said today in its latest update. One more death was reported, pushing that total to 21. The number of states affected remained at 16.
The patient received a thorough work-up, including cerebrospinal fluid testing, during his first hospitalization for worsening headache and neck pain. Routine bacterial cultures were negative. The initial diagnosis was presumed community-acquired meningitis, and the patient was discharged after his condition improved with antibiotic, opiate, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug treatment.
A week later he was hospitalized again with worsening headache, back pain, and new neurologic symptoms. Over the next 2 days his symptoms improved, but by day 6 his condition started to deteriorate. His doctors began empiric treatment with liposomal amphotericin B, and the following day the hospital's lab found Aspergillus fumigatus in the cerebrospinal fluid sample collected the first day of the man's hospitalization.
The physicians added intravenous voriconazole to his treatment regimen and started looking for clues to the fungal source of the infection, but a computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest showed no sign of fungal infection. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain showed midbrain and cerebellar infarcts, but an exam of the paranasal sinuses revealed nothing unusual.
On the eleventh day of hospitalization the man became unresponsive and had seizure symptoms. Cerebral imaging studies suggested an intraventricular hemorrhage with evidence of a mycotic aneurysm. Though cerebrospinal test findings and seizure activity improved, his doctors saw no neurologic recovery. He died 11 days later, after MRI showed new infarcts and the family decided not to pursue aggressive therapy, given the severity of the patient's injuries.

Scene is set for Bugsy Malone
Hit musical opens on Wednesday next in The Premeir Hall
The Premier Hall has hosted many very entertaining shows down through the years - many of them from the Phoenix stable too - but this one will be particularly special. Bugsy Malone conjours up many images, most of them involving side splitting laughter, great gags, decent music and fabulous choreography. So it will be when Phoenix hit the stage on Wednesday next and run right through to Saturday night.
Producer Gerard O'Brien has been working very hard with Director/Choreographer Mary McDonagh; Musical Director David Wray; Assistant Director/Choreographer, Steffen Jorgensen; and Production Manager, Eamonn B. Shanahan to ensure that everything will be in readiness for the opening night. And, knowing the nth degree to which Phoenix always go, it most certainly will be all ready.
The fabulous set which pays a major role in the show has been designed by John O'Donoghue while Allan Butler has been charged, once again, with responsibility for Stage Management. Lighting designer is Gerry Taylor, while Star Systems will look after the sound.
The slapstick musical comedy, Bugsy Malone follows the rivalry between two half-witted street gangs. Bugsy, a washed up, well-intentioned, one-time boxer steps in to take control of Fat Sam's gang and give Dandy Dan and his boys what they deserve.
In this film noir spoof, the message is one of good, clean fun; the characters are wonderful cartoon cutouts; and the weapons of choice are "splurge" guns using silly string and custard pies.
Among the up-beat musicla numbers are: "Bugsy Malone, Fat Sam's Grand Slam, Bad Guys, My Name Is Tallulah, So You Wanna Be a Boxer? and You Give a Little Love" to name just a few.
Tickets cost €15 with concession coming in at €12. A family ticket represents great value at €40

text: Well, I'm about 60 pages short of finishing "The Explosive Child." It certainly helps to see that other kids have similar problems and gives hope that there are actually psychiatrists and/or pyschologists that might be able to handle my kids. I know quite a few people who may benefit from this book as well. I think they don't open up about their kids because they are ashamed or embarrassed and I wish they knew there were others who want them to talk. If we could all talk about it openly we would see we aren't alone in this. Something in the book did bother me though. It talked about why kids may be more likely to meltdown at home than school, one theory was that they are more comfortable at home. Mine depends on the time of year. If its the summer and I don't keep them occupied, they do meltdown at home. But typically, the meltdowns that happen most often are during the school year during the day. Does this mean the pre-k teacher who felt we ran our house like a concentration camp was right? That our kids don't feel comfortable at home so they have meltdowns at school? My train of thought is that if most of the meltdowns aren't happening with me, I must be doing something right for my difficult children..is this right? I'm at a loss on this one. Anwyays, today instead of the typical grounding/taking priveledges away like we've been doing, which is making everyone's life miserable, we started a new schedule. Basically all 6 kids have something different to do every 30 minutes, with the exception of family time during the day and in the evening after husband gets home. The time consists of video games, TV, outside play, one on one parent time, reading time etc. and changes into nightly activities in the evening, like showers, brushing our teeth, journal writing and so on. The evening is broken up into smaller time periods. Anyways..I'm happy to report TODAY WAS A GREAT DAY! The best day we've had all summer and we've been out of school for 3 weeks now. I know I just found this forum a few days ago, but I was really at my wits end when I went looking for more help online. If it wasn't for this book ya'll recommended, I'm not sure I could have thought of more things to try. I was having my own meltdown. I hope the schedule really works and it keeps them from arguing so much. During the summer the two hardest things I have to deal with are the meltdowns from my difficult child's because they get so frustrated with their siblings, easy child and difficult child alike and my youngest difficult child who seems to intentionally do things to drive you crazy. In Texas, its a long summer this year, 3 full months. Life is not the same during the school year. Thats when I get to deal with their behavior during the school day and get the phone calls from the teachers or principal. I almost prefer it, because it gives me a small break during the day. Even though I spend 4 hours a day in the car driving kids to 3 different schools, I at least get some "me" time. It feels so selfish to say I need it, but I do. I crave it so much in the summer that I stay up late at night just to get some quiet "me" time before the next day starts. Then I pay for it the next day because I'm exhausted, but my second wind hits me the minute the kids go to sleep. The book doesn't seem to get into what to do about different types of behaviors. Like with my youngest difficult child who likes to do things he knows bother me or husband. Repetitive sounds, urinating in the bathtub or on the walls, putting clean clothes in the dirty laundry, picking at the texture on the wall and making holes, drawing on the walls, dropping his food on the floor at each meal, he finds this type of thing amusing. Any suggestions in how to handle that? I've had him clean things up himself, it doesn't seem to work on him. Its like the aggravation it causes husband or I is the reward. Its hard to ignore though. The sad thing is, if you were to tell someone who doesn't know my son, he drops his food on the floor, they'd wonder what the big deal was. Its not a big deal if he does it accidently, but when it happens every other bite at each meal, its not accidently and that is frustrating. Is this a fine motor skills problem? It seems purposeful considering the other things he does. Does anyone else deal with this type of behavior?

Surf City
Kudos LP
Fire Records
Surf City's self-titled EP from 2007 is one of my favorite debut records of all-time. It's an amazing update on the New Zealand sounds that defined that island's music scene throughout the '80s and early '90s—the Clean, the Chills, the Verlaines, the Bats, and Sneaky Feelings, among others. Uptempo songs marked by simple but clever arrangements, literate lyrics that acknowledged the hardships of daily life without yielding to them, and anthemic gather-together-and-raise-'em-high melodies. Surf City made a big splash in a few ponds, mine included. Then they went away.
