ST. LOUIS, MO (KTVI) - This is a Christmas one Illinois family will never forget: the Christmas their 12 year-old boy got a new heart and new chance at life.
Daniel Lyons had been on the heart transplant list for just one week, when his mother got a call late Monday night that his new heart had arrived. They immediately got in the car and drove five hours from the Quad Cities to St. Louis.
As of Tuesday night, Daniel still had not woken up from surgery. But when he does, there will be a big surprise waiting for him.
It's been an emotional roller coaster for the Lyons family, who found out in late September that Daniel's asthma attack was actually an enlarged heart, that would ultimately fail him.
"His heart looked like an 85 year-old man's heart, so they said, we have to do a heart transplant," says Daniel's mother, Laura Lyons.
And now, on Christmas Eve, Daniel's mother and grandmother spent all day in the waiting room, nervous but overjoyed. "I'm glad my son got a heart," Lyons explains, "That's what we all wanted for Daniel to have, and that's the best Christmas present I ever got."
But like any 12 year-old, Daniel was devastated by the thought of spending Christmas in a hospital bed, especially with the thought of no presents. "He was really scared today, crying going back to the OR," says his mother.
That's when a nurse stepped in, who happened to befriend Daniel when he first came to Children's a few months ago. Cardiac ICU RN Sarah Tigges says, "We did not know that they were coming, and on our assignment sheet this morning we saw that he was getting a heart."
She and Daniel's mother met in the hospital's Snowflake Village, which is filled with gifts for kids like Daniel during Christmas.
Now, when Daniel wakes up on Christmas Day, he'll be able to have a Christmas after all: new presents, and a lifetime to enjoy them. Tigges explains, "Nobody likes to spend Christmas in the hospital, so the fact that he got a new heart on Christmas Eve is pretty much a gift and miracle in itself, and now he'll be able to have some toys for himself."
In terms of Christmas for the rest of the family, Daniel's three siblings, ranging in age from 3 to 15, will open a few presents while he's gone, but they'll wait to truly celebrate Christmas until Daniel comes home.

Some of my Genea-Blogging friends are posting their Mayflower descendants in the blogs. Midge Frazel, of Granite in My Blood posted her proven lines today. Our Proven Mayflower Lines. After looking at her names, I had to look at my database, as the names were familiar to me.
When I looked at the names, I saw some strange relationships between myself and John Alden, which would mean that I might not have a direct line back to him. Then I realized what the connection is to this Mayflower Ancestor. My Son-In-Law is the descendant of John Alden.

Oral PrednisoloneMarch 3, 2011 at 12:50 pm | Posted in arthrits, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, joint pai, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) | 4 Comments

I've read a lot on the net about oral prednisolone and generally I've thought, 'Hmm, glad I don't need any of that then …'
Me and my big mouth …
Anyway, here's why. I woke up Tuesday morning and my left knee, which is where I had the major, major, MAJOR problems in 2008 but which has been relatively OK since, was stiff … I mean REALLY stiff, as in couldn't straighten, couldn't bend. Oh well … it didn't last long. It stayed a bit stiff until about lunchtime and then wore off. It didn't hurt at all so I decided not to worry about it. 'One of those things,' I said to myself, 'one of those little unpredictable joys of R.A. No doubt that's the last I'll hear from that knee for a year or two.'
WRONG! Woke up yesterday morning and the knee was really stiff again, but instead of wearing of by lunchtime it didn't wear off all day! It still didn't hurt so I thought, 'Oh well, maybe it'll be OK tomorrow.'
You guessed it – this morning it was really stiff again and it hurt (just a bit, but it did hurt). It also felt as though someone had strapped a great big lead weight around it, which says 'swollen' to me, although it's not actually noticeably hot or inflamed. So I gave in and took the doctor lottery – i.e. 'same day appointment with a member of the same day team. We can't tell you who you'll be seeing and it may be a doctor or a nurse.'
Well it was obviously my lucky day because I saw Dr. Locum Eye-Candy, and apart from being eye-candy he also seemed pretty switched on and sensible and (mostly) listened to what I had to say. OK, so he got slightly confused and when I'd said, 'This started on Tuesday' that somehow got translated in his brain to, 'This is an ongoing problem I've had for months' – but hey, we got that straightened out pretty quickly, so I'll let him off! (Also perhaps I got a little confused. He was GORGEOUS – made it hard to concentrate on why I was there … Hmm, hubby will proofread this for me later. Perhaps I should take it out … nah … )
So here I am about to experience my first ever oral prednisolone – oh lucky me !
On the bright side, I am taking minimal quantities and assuming it works I will only be on it for three days, so I don't anticipate any problems. In fact I anticipate a miraculous cure. Let's hope I'm right. I don't always hate it when my predictions come true!
Also, on the really, really, really sunny side, IT'S NOT AN INJECTION INTO THE JOINT! (Or indeed an injection into the bum, which is always mildly embarrassing, and would have been ever more so if Dr. Locum Eye-Candy had been giving it to me!)

I want to share this bit about a study that examined the cross effects of Gardasil with women who where on single stable does of prednisolone and other immunosuppressives.
The women experienced mild to moderate mucocutaneous flares over the watch period.
Was wondering how if any the side effects are going for you? Have you seen a scalar decline at all attributable to the dose?

Both teams like to run, both teams can stop the run. The Cards at home on grass and will be looking to control the clock and keep the Duck offense on the sideline. I think Stanford can slow the high flying Oregon attack at least a little. Maybe the Ducks tighten up a little like last year. Don't know about a side but I believe that this one will go under. Why all the b*llshit about the Tide? I guess it's because we been kicking everyone's @ss for the last 5 years, Anyway this one goes under 61.5, GLTA !
I'm so amused with some of the handicapping being done in this game bottom Line Oregon 56 Stanford 10
roast ducks anyone???
I sated in my write up, Stanford on the defensive side of the ball is as good
as Alabama and Florida (pre gator injuries). They absolutely ended Oregon's National Championship aspirations
AND Marcus Mariota Heisman run all in one fell swoop! Excellent
job Stanford (ML) and Under backers...
Mamba & Crew
You Duckheads are hilarious. Stanford's D is strong like Bama's D. The Bama-Oregon line is -3 on a neutral field. Stanford at home playing on grass ! Big difference from Oregon's artificial turf. Don't be surprised if this ends up being a FG game.
This turned out better than I thought with Stanford winning. The Vegas Boys were right again with Stanford +11 and the Under 61. Way too many points on both lines. Gonna celebrate my winnings in Napa and head to the 49ers game on Sunday.

Destination Inspired: Safari Décor
As the weather gets colder and the days get shorter, we can't help but to let our minds wander to warmer weather. Today, we're taking you and your daydream to an African safari. Imagine the sunshine, the exotic trees, and the beautiful animals. Now imagine those things in your home - well, except for the animals. Believe it or not, safari and jungle-themed décor are very popular and make for a beautiful design in the home. So, if your mind keeps taking you to an African safari, it may be your sign to bring it home. Here are beautiful photos and elements to provide you with inspiration for your safari-inspired getaway.
Balanced Furniture
While you may want some of your furniture to stand out, you don't want it to clash. Balance the furniture in your safari-inspired room by mixing simple, neutral pieces with patterned statement pieces like this living room found on InHouseLand.Blogspot.com.
Animal Print
Top left: WallCoveringsforLess.BlogSpot.com, Bottom Left: RalphLaurenHome.com, Right: HomedIt.com
This is no surprise. What would a safari be without the animals? Whether you want to cover your room in cheetah print or prefer something more understated, these ideas will inspire you.
Whether it's your walls or floors, a little bit of texture brings a whole lot of beauty to your themed design.
Jungle Palette
The most basic part of your safari-inspired room is its color palette. Combine neutrals with warm colors like dark orange for the perfect effect.

8 Tips to Merge Two Houses into One Beautiful Home
Newly wed, newly engaged or even just downsizing to a smaller living space – trying to merge two houses into one cohesive space can be a challenge. These 8 decorating tips will help you make your new space beautiful without ditching anyone's favorite things.
Common Ground
Look for similarities in your design preferences and emphasize those things you both enjoy, rather than focusing on your differences. Perhaps there's a common color scheme, or an artist or art style you both enjoy. Explore design ideas and advice by searching online and creating a Pinterest board. You can each pin items off each other's' boards onto a shared "New Home" board.
Something Old, Something New
As you're merging existing furnishings, determine any key pieces you may be missing and splurge on something new that you both love. First determine the top renovations or furnishings that will best improve your home, and then figure out a style that will suit both your tastes. New cabinets, flooring or lighting, for example, can give your home a fresh new look – one that you created together as a couple – and can also add to the value when it comes time for resale.
Combining all your favorites could help you create something like this eclectic space featured on iDesignArch.com.
Meet In The Middle
Since your home's interior has to satisfy two people, try to find the point of compromise. If you like a traditional plush carpet and he prefers a hardwood floor, choose an oversized area rug to display on a hardwood floor surface. The experts at your local Carpet One Floor & Home store can help mediate and offer solutions to such flooring quibbles.
"No-Critique" Zone
Sometimes you have to put aside your differences – in another room or space, that is. If there's no reconciling certain points of design disagreement, you might opt for a designated room or area for each person, filled with their favorite collectibles or furnishings. Try to keep the eye-rolling to a minimum in these "no-critique" zones!
Create Traditions
He's not into your collection of pressed butterflies, and you're not too keen about his beloved baseball cards. Create your own tradition of collecting something you both treasure, perhaps souvenirs from your travels together, or your personal collection of holiday ornaments, or a music "library" of favorite CDs.
This room featured on Olamar Interiors shows off treasure from may trips.
An Eclectic Mix
Conformity in decorating can be dull and boring, so embrace your different tastes into an eclectic mix that gives your home a unique style. For example, merge his contemporary leather furnishings with your vintage pillows and rugs and create a habitat that works for you both. To keep your new home cohesive overall, keep a piece from each of you in each space.
This room featured on Home Caprice is a great example of how all your favorite things can be merged into one beautiful space.
No Time Limit
Don't be too quick to consign his sports paraphernalia or her antique book collection to the trash or thrift store. There's no rush to find your happy medium. Keep sifting through accessories and rearranging your combined furniture for as long as it takes until it feels right for both of you, which could be anywhere from six months to a year.
Home Sweet Home
Throughout the decorating process, keep in mind that you'll be sharing wonderful memories in your first home together, regardless of the color of the walls or the design of the ceramic tiles. And as you grow together, your tastes will likely change and possibly converge, so don't fret. What's really important is that you are sharing your beautiful new home together – hold onto that thought and everything else becomes a lot simpler.
Have you successfully merged two house? What was the hardest part?

Entry #1- Brett L
I distinctively remember seeing that huge Raptor Mascot in the back of the court in the Skydome (no one like to call it Rogers Centre so stop trying to change the name Ted) when I first saw the Raptors. To me, this was the highlight of the game. I was 6. It was the Raptors first of many sold out games against MJ and the Bulls. That huge Raptor did it for me. That along with the fact that I was sitting up close and personal with the best player to ever grace a NBA court. My love for the Raptors has grown exponentially since that day. I think it was potentially, errr perhaps, ahh PROBABLY the acquisitions of Dee Brown and Dell Curry that set my heart in Raptorland. I, like every other little kid, loved the three ball and there were my two heroes raining threes for Mcdonalds charity like it was going out of style (Can hear it now... "DEE FOR THREEEEE BA DA BA BA BA..IM LOVING IT...). I have a huge passion for the game and watch every Raptor game I can (barring me having an exam. If not my eyes are fixated on the tele). The Raptors are the first team that I ever grew up loving, and will always cherish for being in my hometown.
What sets me apart from any other Raptor fan in winning this competition? Not much. We Raptor fans stick together and are very similar. We know we want a winning franchise and we all seem to know exactly how to build one (Gerald Wallace?). We all would put our lives in Colangelo's hands because we have that much faith in him. We all would bleed purple and red if given the choice of what colour our blood could be. We all unite in Dino Nation and cheer collectively because we are the best fans in the NBA. I cannot possibly differentiate myself from the other hardcore Raptor fans, that would be way too hard. What I can do is put my name into the pot and try to give you a whole night of insightful commentary and chatter while watching TJ Ford run circles around us. Now that would be bad.
Thanks for this opportunity James!
Entry #2 Jonathon G
I have been a Raptor fan since day 1. I remember Zeke being named GM and thinking "this is it! We are legit!" I was so disappointed when BJ Armstrong dissed us, and yes, I booed when we pick Damon over Ed O'Bannon. But I was there opening night in the 'Dome vs. Jersey and he made me a believer. I remember the big win over the Bulls in '97.
Probably the highlight of the year. I fondly remember the tough guy years with Oak and Willis. Even named the family dog Oakley.
I feel lucky to have seen Alvin in his prime and Muggsy suit up in T.O.
Chauncey, too for around 15 games. We've had class guys like Doug Christie and MoPete. And the Thin Towers. Vin-Sanity was both an incredible high an incredible low. And now, we have a true world-class player who is still developing and maturing in CB4. We as fans should feel lucky to witness what he brings to the floor every game.
The Air Canada Centre opened its doors on my 19th birthday. I was there, 2nd last row in the Sprite Zone. Unfortunately, I have only been back once since. Like many of you, trying to earn a living, basketball tickets unfortunately do not fit the budget. I would love to sit side by side with the Dino Blogger and see The Little Engine That Could match up head-to-head with Numero Ocho and know we made the right move.
I sit at work and hear all the suits talking about taking their kids or clients to a game, and after missing half the first, they leave in the third. I think my desk has an imprint from me banging my head on it. Please, I have suffered enough concussions playing ball, I don't think I need anymore. Help me save my brain.
Entry #3 - Maurice W
In my younger days I spent many years playing and watching basketball. Although my knees have many kilometres on them it has been some time since I have played, it was time to hang up the laces. I now resort my passion to the sport by simply watching and teaching the young my knowledge.
My basketball experience not only was taught by good coaches but digesting games in the late 70's on tv and the advantage of living in a city close to Buffalo to see live games. Watching the likes of Bob McAdoo , John Shumate, Randy Smith and Ernie D facilitated a better understanding of the game. From a fan perspective it was all we had in southern Ontario at the time.
Eventually Buffalo made their way to San Diego and Toronto was left with NBA exhibition games and Toronto Tornadoes(cba). Having to resort to a cba team (which folded after 1r and half) and odd games on tv , increased the demand of a team in Toronto. Forward to 1995 and finally an NBA team to conquer Toronto. After many years of rumours, a Canadian team arrived and my dream finally came true.
I spent many years following Julius Erving and the Sixers and of course MJ thereafter. However, having a team you can call your own changed everything. Win or lose I have followed this team from day one. The Raptors still have many ups and downs but to spend several years watching other cities' teams , it simply can't match how blessed we are to have team of our own.
My passion for the Raps and the organization exceeds their abilities at times, simply because of the many years of anticipation.
We have seen many changes through out the years and I will continue to support change necessary to improve our team but true fans always believe, no different than believing the Raps would eventually arrive here.
The organization for the most part provides great entertainment, charitable to the community, and influential to younger ballers strivng to hopefully someday live their dreams. We should also be thankful for the exposure the raptors have created across our beautiful country Canada.
In conclusion thank you Raptors ,John Bitove, and MLSE for fulfulling many Fan's dreams. With so many supporters one day we will see the ultimate dream, an NBA championship banner. Dino Nation Blog helps me feed in my passion for that dream.
Good Luck to all 3 Finalists and please everyone else show them support by voting for who you feel should win.

Early Music Groups and Year End Funding Drives
It is again that time of year when we should all take a little time to reflect on the joy and pleasures we have gained from our local early music groups, musicians and associations. While many of these are driven by a collected sense of volunteerism, I believe we are all too well aware that without any kind of financial backing, many of our concerts and venues would no doubt disappear.
It is then, at this time of year, when the year end is near, that we should contemplate helping our local early music groups generously or even "mildly generously" with their funding drives. No amount is too small to give. You may also find that some government incentives may reward your philanthropic gesture on your year's income tax filings (check with your government tax rules, as these differ from country to country).
Please do give generously to your local early music groups and also consider volunteering your help. After all, we all gain from a healthy and strong local early music scene.
With many thanks for your generosity. May you all have a great December month of concerts.

Your Space Your Story
By: Kate Davidson
Have you spent months this year on a major new home renovation, bathroom or kitchen remodel? The flooring, cabinetry, lighting and walls are complete, but somehow your space doesn't speak to you or exude your personality. It is adding the final finishing touches that will make your space speak to you and bring it to life. I enjoy all phases of a design project. Ideally, we start from the ground up, making sure the plan of the space is cohesive and functional, and then finished with stunning materials, and furnished with gorgeous furnishings. Accessorizing is the crucial phase of completing a space properly and it is very often overlooked.
Rugs, artwork, collectibles, pillows, and mirrors are some of the key elements that will bring your beautifully finished space to life. One of my favorite suppliers of accessories is renwil.com. They offer stylish collections of accessories that can be found at various shops throughout the GTA. Additionally, these finishing touches can also revive a space. With accessories your space can be transformed and used as somewhat as a disguise from its flaws. Adding accessories is like adding the makeup and jewelry to a space and highlights its key areas.
As a designer there is nothing more exciting then hearing how a client loves their space and how it speaks to them and exudes their personality. Follow a few of my tips on how to select the best accessories for your new or existing space.
Add color, a monochromatic space will lack personality, incorporate muted tones that work together or choose two bolder colors and distribute them across your space with accessories. Place these colors in varying accents like pillows, blankets, vases, & artwork. Ideally you draw these colors from a key piece in the space which could be an accent fabric, area rug, piece of art.
When selecting accents ensure you use varying sizes. Groupings are often most successful when combining 3 different heights, widths of objects together. If you want to make a statement, add one or two large items to your space that will draw attention to them. A large painting on canvas would make an impact on a large wall. Pull out some of the colors in that painting for your accessories to distribute across the room.
Add depth and dimension to your space by combining various textures. Keeping in your color scheme, combine items that are rough, polished, woven and silky. This adds interest without the need to add a lot of color.
Create a dynamic space by adding contrast. The key to create contrast is selecting a few key pieces that stand out against the neutral backdrop of the rest of the space. Possibly you have a fireplace clad with a dark stone or slab; distribute the same dark tone found in the fireplace material across the room in a few key areas to unite the furnishings with the fireplace.
Embrace change, as we are constantly evolving, don't assume your décor shouldn't. Once you have found a few key accents that add personality to your space don't be afraid to experiment by re-positioning these items in your space for a fresh new look.

ComponentOne, a component solution provider for Microsoft Visual Studio, has released its Studio Enterprise 2014 v2. This suite of data and UI controls works with Visual Studio, Windows Desktop, Windows Store, and HTML5. The product allows for developers to connect to, manage, and display data in what the company calls "modern interfaces" today.
The highlights of the 2014 v2 release include enhanced data visualization controls for the web and new controls for the Windows Store to help developers display and manage appointment data in their apps.
"With our v2 release we recognized the need in the developer tool space for new features and controls in order for our clients to build the best Windows, web, and mobile applications possible," said Greg Lutz product manager at ComponentOne.
"Our 2014 v2 Studio Enterprise release features a new Sparkline control for HTML5 and Web Forms, Entity Framework 6 support for the Windows Desktop platforms, Chart and Grid export in HTML5 and Web Forms, offline Maps for WinRT XAML, a new Windows 8 Scheduler, and a new RadialMenu for WPF and Silverlight," said Lutz.
In an era where the analysis of data is undeniably crucial, ComponentOne says it has created a control that permits the visualization of trends even in the smallest spaces with ComponentOne Sparkline. With Sparkline, data trends are displayed in dashboards, lists, grids, and inline text.
Sparkline was developed to be used in developers' Web Forms, MVC, or JavaScript/HTML5 apps to help users turn data into a format suitable for decision making.
ComponentOne has updated its Entity Framework DataSource components to support the latest version of Entity Framework 6.x now.
With a drag-and-drop scheduling control with in-line editing, developers can now build their own appointment scheduling apps with the ComponentOne Scheduler for WinRT XAML. The company's promise is to be able to schedule one-time, all day, or recurring appointments with reminders, labels, and availability status just like Microsoft Outlook and the Windows 8 Calendar app.

Hello loves,
I know that I promised you grand updates filled with yarnbombs in Revelstoke and Golden and Banff. My heart aches a bit to tell you that this won't be that kind of update. Far from excuses, I offer only explanation. Here's the thing. The girls and I left Vernon and enjoyed a gorgeous drive to Banff listening to good music and only stopping to pee lest we arive late and miss the main event. But wait. I'm sure I mentioned that I talked B and Meemats into accompanying me to go and see Hawksley Workman in Banff, right? So… no time for knit graffiti on the way East.
We arrived in Banff to gridlocked traffic and by the time we had camp set up we had to book it down town and over the bridge. We arrived at the grounds about half way through Matthew Barber's set and he was really great. I knitted tidy little rows of Neapolitan stripes.
Then life lost all relevance as Hawksley Workman stepped on stage. He and Lonely rocked a killer set and all of a sudden my tidy rows of knitting turned spastic, spatial and special. I think I died a little during Smoke Baby (those familiar with Elizabethan slang will know what I mean by that). INTENSE!!! Here's the best part. Afterward, I got to have a few words with the man through a chain-link fence (on which I subsequently placed the only piece of knit graffiti I accomplished over the weekend during the Spirit of the West set – more on that later) and I was standing thisclose thisfuckingclose to him.
This is how it happened: We all three of us were walking past and saw him behind the stage so I went over to the fence and shouted "Hawksley!" Then he looks over and sees me so I say "I love you!" to which he smiles, laughs a bit, then starts walking over! In my head, I'm kinda like, fuck, I didn't plan past I love you… He asked me what I thought of the set, actually asked if I thought it was okay, which I did (I think I might have maybe used the word orgasmic). Anyway, he was very cool to come say hi and was totally open to a quick chat and I really hope I didn't seem too mental about the whole situation, but I'm reasonably certain I did. He's got mad sex appeal. Oh dear!
Blah blah blah. Anyway, after this, I was a bit too dazed and out of it to concentrate on putting up tags, but I did one little one and gave up. During Spirit of the West, which was rad, I snuck over and put it on the fence. And got a big fat parking ticket.
The rest of the trip was spent beating prohibition… we were rum runners. Bootleggers. Regular Habana Joes. We were pretty burnt out for the drive back. Meemats and B alternated between sleep and waking and I kept the music on so I could sing myself awake. It was a crazy 36 hours.
Oh yea, and guess what. I totally got judged by non-knitters! This is great (note implicit sarcasm).
So, just as we sat down on the lawn at the front of the stage, we moved in just behind/beside this group of trendies. One of them turned around to see who sat down as I was pulling out my knitting. She raises her eyebrows and leans over to her friend, whispers in her ear, they both look back at me and the friend mouths the words, "Oh. My. God." And then they laugh at me. I'm SOOOOO unbearably un-cool! Please tell me how to be!
This is the best part: the chick that realised that somebody would do something as loser-ish as make art in public was wearing, wait for it, boots made of knitted fabric. Yes. It's cool to wear fashion made in the sweatshops of Bangladesh, but not cool to make it yourself (fuck-heads). God forbid we give up consumerism! People, curb your creative urges! Don't express yourself artistically! Clearly, this is a threat for some people. What kind of world would we live in if we all made it ourselves, or got someone we knew to make it for us? Probably a better one. I pick that one, thank you very much.
Lastly, my focus for the next few weeks is to get my Persephone shell completed and then make some progress on my Stompin Tom Connors portrait. Because I haven't touched either in weeks.
knitified* out.

Big 12 Campus Correspondent
Baseball, still widely known as America's past time, is a game full of tradition. The food, the music, the ceremonial first pitch, and the 7th inning stretch are still the same, and they have been for many years.
There is nothing about Jantzen Witte that says 'traditional baseball player.' From his uncommon name to the way he bats, and even the path he took, he surprises us all on how he takes being untraditional and has made it work since he started playing baseball at 3 years old.
Witte also played tennis from when he was 6 till his freshman year of high school. Witte has an untraditional swing because of his love for tennis when he was younger.
"The team calls it a forehand swing to make fun of me," Witte said. "When I first got to TCU, I didn't even know how different my swing was. The coaches weren't too crazy about it so we tried to tweak it a little bit."
Though there were little changes, you can still sense the tennis player behind his swing. Playing competitive tennis for that long will leave a mark on someone "so the coaches started to have an 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it,' type of mentality about it," Witte said.
The senior third baseman from Arlington, Texas, had a decision to make: stick with one sport and possibly make it to the next level, or play both. The decision to walk away from tennis was a hard one, but it was always going to be baseball for Witte.
"My dad grew up playing baseball so he got me into it," Witte said. "Being from Arlington, we've always been big Texas Rangers fans. It was just expected that I was going to play baseball.
"Baseball was my favorite and tennis was pretty tiring. It's a ton of traveling and long practices every day."
Unlike many of his TCU baseball teammates, Witte wasn't highly recruited.
"Most of them had a really hard time choosing between different schools," Witte said. "But just like choosing baseball over tennis, it was always TCU for me."
Even after his high school graduation, Witte was still uncertain of his collegiate plan. Upon choosing TCU, He started at what seemed like the bottom and worked his way to the top.
"I thought I could just hit my way through the lineup and that's pretty much what I've done to get me where I am today," Witte said. "I was lucky enough to be here, and be here for the best time for the school."
Witte did arrive at the right time for TCU, as the Horned Frogs reached Omaha for the first time in program history with their appearance at the 2010 College World Series.
"Going to Omaha in 2010 was the best time of my life," Witte said.
Witte and fellow senior Davy Wright are the lone remaining members of that Omaha team. As a redshirt freshman in that 2010 season, Witte hit a team best and career-high .374.
In each of his first three seasons, Witte has hit over .300 and is approaching that mark as a senior.
Though going to the College World Series brought Witte and his teammates closer, he still thinks about what could have been if he had chosen tennis.
"I really liked the team aspect of baseball," Witte said. "As I've gotten older I'm starting to miss tennis more and more."
With this being his senior year, Witte said he's really tried to slow everything down by taking every moment in, to look back at good times like the College World Series.
"When going out to eat with older players who have graduated and moved on, they always talk about how much they miss baseball," Witte said. "I know I'm going to miss playing for TCU, so I just have to realize how fortunate it is that I am here right now."
Witte looks up to TCU head coach Jim Schlossnagle, because of his life beyond baseball.
"I love baseball and try to play the best I can, but I have a pretty good grasp that it's just a game and that I won't be playing forever," Witte said. "I look at my coaches with their kids on the field and realize that there is a life beyond baseball."
The future holds many opportunities for Witte, but whatever it may be, will be in Texas.
"It's my home. I love Fort Worth. I'm from Arlington, but Fort Worth has been really good to me," Witte said.
Everything about Witte has been untraditional in a sport based so highly on tradition. The way he rose to the top, his name, and mostly his swing is different from any other, but this seems to have paved a pretty compelling road ahead. From tennis to baseball, the choice seems to have been the right for Jantzen Witte.

Open access initiatives in Communication Studies:
Efforts to ensure access to publicly funded research include the NIH (National Institutes of Health) mandate to provide access to federally funded scientific and health-related publications, as described on the National Institutes of Health Public Access site: http://publicaccess.nih.gov/. PubMed Central, http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/, provides access to numerous health related and biomedical articles.
Similar discussions have taken place in the media/communications arena. One group advocating for data access for public policy is SSRC's Media Research Hub (http://mediaresearchhub.ssrc.org/); see Toward a Federal Data Agenda for Communications Policymaking, a 2008 report by Dr. Phil Napoli, McGannon Center and Joe Karaganis, SSRC: available at: http://commlaw.cua.edu//articles/v16/16.1/Napoli.pdf

Jody Offstein, President of Furniture Galleries Carpet One, ran The Army Ten Miler in Washington, DC on Sunday, October 10th. Jody, his father Alan Offstein (69) and mother Patti Offstein (67) were among the 35,000 participants to complete the race which started and finished at the Pentagon, flowed through Arlington National Cemetery, Lincoln Memorial, The State Department and the Watergate Hotel.
Prior to the race, the Offstein family asked that private contributions be made directly to the Building for America's Bravest program. As of today, the store has collected over $2000 in contributions from their customers!!
Jody is a veteran who graduated from the United States Military Academy class of 1996 and served for 5 years as a Military Police officer stationed at Fort Carson, Colorado. He has also been deployed to Bosnia in support of peacekeeping efforts during Operation Enduring Freedom for 7 months.
Thank you for your service Jody, and for your support of Building for America's Bravest!

I also particularly like the fact that he has conveyed a lot of energy in the drawing on this one. Though there are flaws with his artistic ability, as always (in this case, it's hard to tell whether the characters are children or adults, which is important), he still managed to convey a scene dominated by chaos. That's funny, as a general rule. It's easier to do in film, of course, where you have not only moving images but sound as well, but it is certainly possible in a static image as this comic proves. It's the various explosions, they are good for this task.
Anyway, since the comic is pretty straightforward and I don't have much else to say about it, I thought I'd talk a little about the newest blog post Randall has up. We'd been wondering what the purpose of that color survey was, and after two months he finally told us. Of course, the data has no actual value in any scientific sense, as the participants were self-selected (as was the extent of their participation), there was no control group that I can tell, and all the information was self-entered. Much like any online poll, the data is worthless. You'd think a "scientist" like Randall would care about this, but at the same time, I don't think he is trying to present the data as anything more important than it is.
My real point about the post is that all else aside, it's pretty interesting! And while it has a few bits of humor and sketching thrown in, that's clearly not the focus. The point is, Randall has some interesting ideas and he wants to tell you about them. In other words, it is a perfect post for the as-yet-theoretical Randall Munroe Illustrated Picto-Blog! We really have got to make sure he gets the message that a blog is the right outlet for his ideas.
I think anyone talking about humor on the internet should really read the newest Overcompensating comic. And anyone looking for humor on the internet should really read every Overcompensating comic.
To cover my lazy ass for the next week, the next three comics will be reviewed by guest HARRISON, who you may recall from this post, which, though he did not know it at the time, was actually his secret tryout for guest posting in the future. it was a tryout which he passed, clearly. enjoy folks. I AM WATCHING YOUR EVERY MOVE.

Groundbreaking Ceremony in Millerton,NY for Staff Sgt. Valyou and Family!
December 8th was a big day for U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Stephen Valyou and family, as the groundbreaking ceremony for their new smart home in Millerton, New York had commenced!
Dalene Flooring, partnering with Mohawk Flooring, is providing all the flooring and installation to Valyou's new home. Valyous's new home will provide him with independence from his injuries that he suffered while in Iraq in 2007.
In March of 2007, Valyou was conducting Explosive Ordinance Disposal when was shot by a sniper on his way back from responding to a report of an improvised explosive device (IED). Valyou suffered lung damage, a laceration to the liver and is paralyzed from the waist down. But that hasn't stopped this Veteran from enjoying his favorite things- like hunting and fishing.
The smart home is designed to be wheelchair accessible and is run by an iPad. The goal is for the home to be completed by spring.

Emergency Plumber in Upson, WI (Iron County)
There's no time to wait when you have a plumbing emergency! Find an emergency plumber in Upson, Wisconsin who's available 24 hours. This page serves Upson, 54565 in Iron County, WI and the surrounding area.
Place Your Business Here!
We need a professional, reputable plumber who services the Upson, WI area to claim exclusive use of this listing.
If you're interested in being seen here, please Contact Us for current rates and availability.
Emergency plumbing repairs could fall under these areas:
- Leaking pipes
- Major water leak or damage
- Basement flooding
- Bath tub drain clog
- Sink drain clog
- Overflowing toilet
- Garbage disposal problems
- Water heater repair
- and much more…
Mitigate Your Emergency
Our emergency plumbers are prepared 24 hours a day. Depending on the situation, we can first advise you over the phone if there are steps you can take to stop the flow of water immediately until we can arrive. We rush to get there as soon as possible, but any minute you can save will help.
You can always start by turning off the main water valve to your home. This way, the emergency is at least not getting worse before we get there.
For clogged drains and overflowing toilets or sinks, make sure the water is turned off immediately. If you cannot turn the water off at the source, you will need to locate the main water shut-off.
Prevent Your Plumbing Problems for the Future
Your water heater works harder during the fall and winter, so make sure you eliminate all sediment buildup around the equipment. Flushing the heater can lead to increased longeivty so you don't face plumbing problems during the winter.
Never flush products that shouldn't be flushed down the toilet or drains. Even some things, like menstrual products, that say they are okay to flush are still a bad idea. Over time, these can cause serious plumbing emergencies.
If you have even a small leak, get it repaired! If you leave it, it will very likely turn into a major problem when you're least likely to be ready for it. Leaks typically start small – from rust or small cracks – and then when the temperature and pressure are right, they explode. Make sure you're keeping an eye out for even the smallest bit of moisture on your pipes.
If you do need an emergency plumber in Upson – we're here. But in the meantime, a little DYI maintenance can't hurt!

Although we have gone over a lot of the changes in the Windows Phone 8 'Portico' update that started rolling out today (build 10211), there were a few tiny nuggets that even we missed.
Luckily Microsoft has gone ahead and printed out all the changes in detail on the site and while there is nothing that's stop-the-presses, the details should satisfy those who need to know.
Update 8.0.10211.204
- Messaging improvements. A great messaging experience is now even better. You can now add multiple recipients at the same time when you send a text message and automatically save unsent text messages as drafts. You can even edit received text messages before you forward them.
- Text replies to incoming calls. Can't take a call? Now you can send a prewritten text reply to a caller directly from the call answer screen. It's a nice way to let people know that you're not ignoring them.
- Internet Explorer improvements. You can now change your settings to prevent pictures from downloading automatically—an easy way to help keep data usage low. You can also delete selected sites from your browsing history and leave the rest intact.
- Wi-Fi connectivity. Got a favorite Wi-Fi network? Windows Phone 8 will now prioritize Wi-Fi connections based on your connection history.
- Other improvements. Includes many other improvements to Windows Phone.
For us, besides Nokia's camera fixes, the always-on Wi-Fi seems to be the coolest. While these changes are not game changers, they certainly do add some nice pizzazz and finishing touches to Windows Phone 8.
How's the update treating you? What's your favorite new feature? Let us know in comments. (Thanks, jcutting, for the tip!)

Designer Inspired: Eric McClelland
It's time for our fourth featured designer in our Designer Inspired Series of pink ribbon welcome mats exclusive to Carpet One Floor & Home. Remember, there are 12 designs so we'll be featuring one designer and their inspiration each month. This month we're taking a closer look at the welcome mat design from Eric McClelland. His ribbon design in cool teal and charcoal is great for the winter months or year round.
The mat draws inspiration from the breast cancer ribbon and transforms it into a 19th century graphic which makes reference to the fabric pattern Gotham Sable and the curvilinear patterns from designer Rene Prou in the 1930s.
Eric is part of Fleur-de-lis Interior Design, Inc. Fleur-de-lis' work has been acknowledged with awards from the Association of Registered Interior Designers of Ontario (ARIDO) and from the Design Exchange. Their projects have been featured in Luxury Home Canada, Canadian Interiors, Toronto Home, The Toronto Star, The National Post, The Globe and Mail, Condo Life, New Dreamhomes, Home and Décor, Home By Design, Trends, and on CityTv's CityLine where Eric is a regular guest expert.
