No-ball, not dead ball
Steven Finn is developing into one of the finest fast bowlers in the world but every time his knee buckles and he collides with the stumps in his delivery stride, I throw up my hands in despair at the failure to introduce a simple change to the Law that would address the issue for all time.
The MCC indicated that the Laws would be reviewed after the 2012 Headingley Test, when South Africa's captain, Graeme Smith, was reprieved after edging to first slip, because Finn had dislodged the bails at the non-striker's end with his knee and umpire Steve Davis had called dead ball.
Davis cited Law 23.4(b)(vi), stating that Smith had been distracted. It later transpired that both South Africa batsmen had previously complained to the umpires that Finn's habit of knocking into the stumps was off-putting.
Finn's tendency was regarded seriously enough in the World Twenty20 in Sri Lanka in September to be formally raised at the pre-tournament briefing for coaches and captains. They were informed that any bowler breaking the stumps would first receive a warning and on every further occasion the delivery would be ruled as a dead ball.
As it happened, when England played New Zealand, the umpires forgot about the warning. Finn collided with the stumps in each of his last three overs. As a dead ball was ruled, no runs could be accrued from the deliveries in question. New Zealand missed out on a leg-side wide, a single, and then, on the final occasion, James Franklin drilled the ball through mid-off for four only for the boundary to be removed from the records.
Smith deserved to be reprieved; New Zealand deserved those runs. The dead-ball ruling protects the batsmen from dismissal but does not reward them with runs. The Law needs to be changed. The solution is staring everybody in the face. The ruling should not be a dead ball, it should be a no-ball. That way the batsman always gets whatever benefits accrue and an extra delivery as well. If batsmen stumble into the stumps in the process of playing a shot, they are given out hit-wicket. For bowlers to suffer a no-ball would be the least they deserve.
Meanwhile, Finn needs to stop kicking the stumps and kick the habit instead.

If the South African batsmen who "complained" were being put off then how did they manage to hit the ball for four? Just shows what a few mind games can do and they effectively deliberately disrupted Finn in that Headingley Test. Make it a no ball or do whatever, but to believe the complaints from Smith and co were valid is utter tosh. Why don't you apply the laws of the game for batsmen who make bowlers wait, it says that batsmen should be ready when the bowler is at the start of his run up. Messing about at the crease and doing your morning exercises is another irritating and deliberate attempt to frustrate bowlers, what is sauce for the goose should be sauce for the gander!
dummy4fb on January 23, 2013, 1:06 GMT
David Hopps, you're spot on.Steven Finn has got away with that absurdity too lightly.After breaking the wicket three times in an innings he should be banned from bowling for the rest of that innings.
Selassie-I on January 22, 2013, 16:52 GMT
@ Posted by armchairjohnny on (January 20 2013, 12:26 PM GMT) - I really don't think Finn is doing it deliberately, he only just clips the stumps, at his size if he were trying to do it then he would seriousley risk getting caught up in the stumps and doing himself a mischief - a bit of a high risk strategy which might, just might, put off the batsman a little and he knows he's getting dead balled for anyway? Also if you've ever tried looking at the stumps during your bowling action and still getting the ball relativley on target, it's not easy!
Selassie-I on January 22, 2013, 16:37 GMT
I'm an England fan, and believe it should be a no ball.
Disagree with the leg bye rule change some are proposing though, most leg byes are from bad balls down the leg side the batsman is trying to glance it. I think this might encourage more negative leg stum lines and bowlers firing in the ball to the pads from round the wicket - borning for everyone. Thanks to DRS we're getting rid of padding away much more, let's try to keep the rules away from promoting negative cricket.
RoshanF on January 22, 2013, 5:39 GMT
Agree with the article. How about two other rules ie. the leg-bye and the toss. Cricket is mainly about bat and ball - simple. Why should a batsmen or his side benefit by getting a run when the batsman has been beaten by the bowler. Pads are there to protect the batsman - surely thats all.How many times have we seen a Waqar or a Wasim delivered late reversing yorker hit a batsman on his legs or pads end up with the bowlers appealing like mad only to see the batsman taking a LEG-BYE. Add insult to injury slow motion replays reveal that the ball would have hit the leg stump but the umpire decides otherwise. And then theres tne toss. In no other major sport is the toss as important as it is in cricket. In certain conditions the toss decides the fate of a match too often. Why not have a system where both sides have to name their playing XIs plus four other players BUT only the side losing the toss gets to change up to four players - after the toss. Do something to reduce the disadvantage
china_vanilla_bear on January 22, 2013, 1:53 GMT
You do not know a ball is a wide until it passes the batsman. That is why you cant call it a no-ball or encourage the batter to hit it. We've seen plenty of balls swing late in ODI cricket that start normal and then become a wide.
But yes, the leg bye should be removed. Why reward the batting team for good bowling?!
i think it would be a bit harsh to suspend a bowler for repeated infractions. Changing it to a no-ball not only awards the batting team a run, but also makes a deflected run-out at the bowlers end impossible, and any normal run-out at the bowlers end very difficult (with the broken stumps) and thus that punishment is sufficent. A suspension is ludicrous.
dummy4fb on January 21, 2013, 22:17 GMT
@Stupid: The bowler gets unfair advantage when he/she over-steps. If that same delivery is bowled from behind the no-ball line the delivery length is different. Hence the no-ball is fair. Nothing to do with distraction.
Regarding this proposed rule change: I think it is fair. Habitual bowlers like Finn should be penalised.
itsthewayuplay on January 21, 2013, 19:53 GMT
@ Stup1d I can only assume you've never played cricket before or at least batted higher than 11. Watching a red / white leather ball roughly the size of a tennis ball coming at you at sometimes 90mph from varying heights and rarely in a straight line can is a blur at the best of times and requires total and pure concentration for about 5 seconds from the the top of the bowlers run-up to the when the batsman plays the shot. The eyes will pick up any movement near or around the sightscreen and there's not much the batsman can do about it as it's almost a reflex action. If you still don't understand, try this next time you're out walking or driving. Look at 2 cars about 70 metres away during the daytime, one with dipped lights and one without. Which one is clearer?
maddy20 on January 21, 2013, 19:24 GMT
@skilebow Didn't you watch the Ind-Eng test series? I believed he did it about 2-3 times in the first test. Sure the frequency has reduced, but he still does it.
WalkingWicket11 on January 21, 2013, 18:54 GMT
@yorkshire-86 @bford1921 @Zohair.ul.hasan @jazzaaaaaaaa @Dark_Harlequin @dsirl I guess batsmen get distracted even less (or not at all, actually) when the bowler oversteps, so why call that as a no-ball either? Why even stop at that? No batsman has ever complained about getting distracted by chucking, so why should bowlers be prevented from doing that? Also I wonder why batsmen back out of their shots when a spectator moves just a few steps behind the sight screen about 70 metres or more away? I always thought it was because any minor movement distracted them, but after reading your expert opinion, I now understand that batsmen never get distracted.

This gorgeous 1-quart Milk Jug or Pitcher was made with an unusual double molding technique. The azaleas are molded in relief, and most of the body (the turquoise blue part) is pineapple-molded. It dates c. 1842-48.
Perfect condition! No chips, no cracks, no crazing, no wear to the gilding, no repairs.
Although it stands only 5-3/4 " (14.5 cm) high, the circumference measures almost 18" (46 cm) ...this striking piece has presence! It holds 4 cups (1 quart) of liquid.
The only legible marks are the hand painted pattern number 5544 in red, and another number (30) in golden brown. This Minton pattern number dates the piece to no later than 1848. The bottom has the molded English Registry mark, which dates the pitcher to after 1842. That mark is filled in with glaze, and is not legible.
For another example of Minton's pineapple molding, see plate 1321, page 221 of Michael Berthoud's book " A Compendium of British Cups".

The Wireless and Video Communications Lab is developing new approaches for the recovery of missing data and lost information using the principle of signal sparsification, which includes compressed sensing and rank minimization. This research, funded by NSF, is enabling novel algorithms for image demosaicking (recovery of missing colors), deblurring, denoising, super-resolution, and visual coding.
New direction is being explored in the recovery of critical information embedded within massive amount of data and the reconstruction of high-resolution environmental data-fields from limited samples captured by sensor networks. This includes the application of more general principles of sparse coding for the recovery of multi-dimensional data fields. In particular, we are employing signal sparsification and rank-minimization principles for the recovery and reconstruction of high-resolution and high-dimension tensor data found in environmental modeling of a variety of data-fields. These data-fields could represent any physical or biological parameters that scientists and environmentalists are interested in.

These slim, 3/4 length insoles deliver the cushioning and arch support you need with a lightweight feel. A metatarsal pad provides ball-of-foot cushioning, helping to relieve pressure, pain, burning and numbness caused by metatarsalgia. A flexible, longitudinal arch (located in the midfoot area) is designed to support the arch and align the foot, which helps prevent overpronation (foot rolling inward too much). The insoles are slim enough to fit in most shoes, and you can easily move them from one pair of shoes to another.

Muscles of back D.Rania Gabr D.Sama. D.Elsherbiny
Objectives Identify the superficial and deep muscles of the back in terms of their location, nerve supply and actions. Understand the muscle support of the trunk. Explain the mechanism of body weight transmission.
Vertebral Column Cervical: 7 Thoracic: 12 Lumbar: 5 Sacral: 5 (fused to form 1 sacrum) Coccygeal: 4 (fused to form coccyx) Total= 33 (counted as 26 in the total bones of the body because of fusion.
Movements at the Vertebral Column Flexion: bending forward Extension: bending backwards Lateral flexion: bending side-wards Rotation: Twisting the trunk Circumduction: Combined movements
MUSCLES OF THE BACK They are organized into 3 groups: Deep group: attached to & involved in the movement of vertebral column & head. Intermediate group: attached to ribs & serve respiratory functions. Superficial group: attached to & involved in the movements of upper limb. Intrinsic muscles: Develop in the back Supplied by posterior rami of spinal nerves Extrinsic muscles: Not developed in the back Supplied by anterior rami of spinal nerves.

Acting alone; Actions: Acting alone; laterally flex neck & rotate head to side of active muscle. Acting together; Acting together; extend head & neck.
Superficial Intrinsic Back Muscles Splenius cervices & splenius capitis
Superficial Intrinsic Back Muscles
Intermediate intrinsic back muscles: 2.Intermediate intrinsic back muscles: Erector spinae is the chief extensor of the vertebral column & is divided into three columns (also called as the long muscle of the back). Ilio-costalis (forms lateral column) Longissimus (forms intermediate column) Spinalis (forms medial co lumn)
They extend from sacrum to skull. They include extensors and rotators of head & vertebral column. Their tone is responsible for maintenance of normal curvature of vertebral column.
Intrinsic Muscles of the Back Deep intrinsic back muscles: 3.Deep intrinsic back muscles: It can be divided into two groups: Major deep layer Minor deep layer
Deep Intrinsic Muscles of the Back 1-Major deep layer Transversospinal group consist of semispinalis, multifidus & rotators. N.S: N.S: Posterior rami of spinal nerves. Actions: Actions: Extension and stabilization of vertebral column.

With additional purchase, visitors can enjoy a n exclusive group presentation with a veteran astronaut that includes a question and answer session during Lunch With An Astronaut offered at noon daily.
Astronaut Bio
Astronaut Jerry Carr started his career at the ripe age of 17. In 1954, he joined the United States Marine Corps and became an all-weather interceptor pilot for 11 years before joining NASA. Carr was selected by NASA in 1966 to become an astronaut. He was one of 19 astronauts chosen that year. He has logged 8,300 hours of flying time and achieved numerous awards and medals including the Marine Corps Aviation Association's Exceptional Achievement Award and the NASA Distinguished Service Medal in 1974.
In the beginning of his career with NASA, Carr served as CAPCOM with Mission Control for Apollo flights 8 and 12. He also assisted with the development of the lunar roving vehicle used by the Apollo flight crews on the moon. On November 16, 1973, Skylab 4 launched into Earth's orbit and would remain there 84 days. Carr was commander of this mission, and the crew performed more than 100 experiments and made observations of the sun's solar processes using the Apollo Telescope Mount.
Three Skylab missions paved the way for the International Space Station (ISS) which currently orbits the Earth. Skylab proved that humans could live and work in space for long periods of time. Jerry Carr and his crew held the American record of longest duration of time spent in space for 20 years until the Shuttle-Mir program in the 1990s. While in orbit, Carr completed 3 spacewalks totaling 15 hours and 48 minutes.
Having achieved the rank of Colonel, Carr retired from the U.S. Marines in 1975, and then retired from NASA in 1977. He went on to become the Senior Vice President of Bovay Engineers, Inc. until 1981. He founded CAMUS in 1984 which provided the Boeing Company technical support during the crew systems design of the ISS.

Undifferentiated Opposition
posted by Mike at 2/09/2005 11:19:00 AMNOTE: YOU ARE VIEWING AN ARCHIVED POST AT RUNNING SCARED'S OLD BLOG. PLEASE VISIT THE NEW BLOG HERE.
This week's column is called "The Incredible Shrinking Democrats" — which is unusual for Klein, given that, unless I am wildly off on this, he usually seems to write from a liberal perspective. But in it, he makes an incredibly good point that hits directly right to we "opposition forces" of the blogosphere, too:
The current Democrats resemble nothing so much as the Republicans during the 25 years after Roosevelt's death — negative, defensive, intellectually feeble, a permanent minority. There are reasons to oppose this President — arrogance abroad, crony capitalism at home — but undifferentiated opposition is obtuse and most likely counterproductive.
(Emphasis added.) That one line hit home hard for me, especially the concept of undifferentiated opposition. Why? I — like many, many, many of my brethren — have been so overwhelmed by the onslaught of idiocies coming from the Bush Administration that, indeed, no one in the Bush Administration can possibly do any good, in my eyes. I have definitely grown accustomed to undifferentiated opposition — as did mainstream liberals and Democrats, as shown by Kerry's campaign, which failed, I believe, because it did not take a clear stand on and for progressive values, but based the bulwark of its campaigning on anti-Bush rhetoric. Not that Dubya didn't deserve it, but mainstream America responded more to Republicans' smooth, insincere come-on lines about 'values' than to the important criticism of Bush's horrible first term.
I suppose that's why I've been reaching out for Dean (and Lakoff) — to me, they represents much more of a "we stand for this" platform than a "can you believe the shit this guy is pulling?!?!?" platform. Instead of saying "this is fucked up" to everything Bush says, we need to clash with his crap by saying, "This is wrong, because [conflict with Democrats' positive platform plank]. And what we have in mind is better, because of
"Undifferentiated opposition." That's the Democrats' biggest P.R. problem summed up in two words.

Chicagoland's Jun Wang: Gun Rights, Ownership Advocate Among Chinese-American Community
Yesterday I came across a short documentary on the Al Jazeera website entitled Chicago's Chinese Gun. The description for the 6 minute 28 second piece is:
Gun advocates come in all shapes and sizes. Jun Wang is one of them.
The AJ "Short" shows how Chicago-area independent software engineer and family man Jun Wang- who arrived in the U.S. from China in the mid-nineties- came to realize how firearms are incredibly-effective tools for personal safety, so much so that he went on to become a "a gun coach, advocating for gun rights and gun ownership among his fellow Chinese Americans."
(Editor's note: Bold added for emphasis)
Chicago's Chinese Gun
Al Jazeera Video
These days, Jun Wang offers firearm training through his Chicago-area Canfire Instructors, and according to Al Jazeera:
In addition to teaching basic laws and safe-handling rules to students who are interested in buying guns, Jun Wang also offers regular safety lectures and small workshops to Chinese living in the Chicago area, free of charge. He believes that the way to change the stereotypical view of Chinese Americans as easy targets in times of violence is to have more of them owning guns.
(Editor's note: Bold added for emphasis)
A very good and engaging documentary by filmmakers Xiao Lyu and Yunfei Zhao.
Survival And Prosperity wishes Jun Wang the very best of success with his advocacy efforts.

Illinois State Representative Rita Mayfield (D) Proposes 3.75 Percent Surcharge On Firearms And Firearm Parts
Illinois Democrats continue to push anti-gun legislation in Springfield, the latest being Illinois House Bill 1810 from State Representative Rita Mayfield (D-Waukegan). From Brandon Merano over on the WSIL-TV (Southern Illinois ABC affiliate) website Friday:
A new bill headed to the Illinois House floor could increase what we pay for guns.
The bill would put a three-and-three-quarters percent charge on firearms and firearm parts, with revenue going to at-risk youth.
Language in HB 1810, introduced by State Representative Rita Mayfield defines "At risk Youth" as kids ages 16 – 22 who live in a "high crime area where the homicide rate is more than 4 times higher than the average rate of a community the same size."
That suggests most of the funding would flow north to Chicago…
(Editor's note: Bold added for emphasis)
A week ago, the National Rifle Association's Institute for Legislative Action reported on legislation introduced in the Illinois Senate by State Senator Toi Hutchinson (D-Chicago Heights)- Amendment 2 to Senate Bill 9- warning:
Under SA 2, a 5% tax would be imposed on any membership or access fee for gun clubs, shooting ranges, hunt clubs, training classes and match fees. Not only is this an abhorrent tax on your Second Amendment rights, it also requires that any of those places/people to register with the state and pay an annual fee of $75 just so that they can offer their service or membership with the 5% tax added…

Off The X Training Concepts Announces 2017 Preparedness, Self-Protection Classes In Glenview, Illinois
Any Chicagoland readers familiar with Off The X Training Concepts in Glenview, Illinois? I've mentioned the north suburban preparedness/personal safety training outfit before on Survival And Prosperity, but never really dedicated a full post to them. From their Facebook page:
Off the X Training Concepts was created to offer an extensive selection of training opportunities in the areas of preparedness and self-protection. It was founded on the belief that every individual should have access to information and training, better preparing them to take ownership of their personal safety and the safety of loved ones. Unlike many training schools and programs, OTX does not promote or teach a specific school of thought or discipline, but instead acts as a hub for a variety of training platforms and instruction. This allows the individual access to a variety of philosophies, which enables them the ability to find what works best for them…
The reason I bring up OTX, as they're also known by, is that I spotted the following post this morning on their Facebook page regarding upcoming training opportunities:
WE ARE BACK!! OTX is pleased to announce several upcoming training offerings for 2017!!
In March and October we will be hosting Craig Douglas / Shivworks for their EWO and ECQC classes.
Also in March we will begin offering monthly boxing/conditioning groups instructed by Fernando (Beast) Rivera.
Beginning in April, OTX will be hosting an Illinois concealed carry class every other month.

Illinois State Senator Toi Hutchinson (D) Proposes Wide-Ranging Anti-Gun Tax
Now that the November elections are over, it was only a matter of time before the next assault was launched against the Second Amendment in Illinois.
The National Rifle Association's Institute for Legislative Action published the following on their website Monday:
Illinois: Anti-Gun Tax Proposed on Exercising Second Amendment Rights
Last week, the Illinois Senate received Senate Amendment 2 to Senate Bill 9 from state Senator Toi Hutchinson. In an attempt to address the ongoing budget problem in Illinois, Sen. Hutchinson decided to tax Illinois residents' Second Amendment rights, and by extension, their right to safety.
Under SA 2, a 5% tax would be imposed on any membership or access fee for gun clubs, shooting ranges, hunt clubs, training classes and match fees. Not only is this an abhorrent tax on your Second Amendment rights, it also requires that any of those places/people to register with the state and pay an annual fee of $75 just so that they can offer their service or membership with the 5% tax added.
By increasing the price of self-defense classes as well as any fee spent on range time and practice, this amendment is making it more expensive for Illinoisans to seek training to be able to defend themselves. SA 2 to Senate Bill 9 effectively sees Illinois residents' right to safety as an opportunity to ease the budget burden on the entirety of the state. Further, any "repair, servicing, alteration, fitting, cleaning, painting, coating, towing, inspection, or maintenance of tangible personal property" is also taxable under SA 2. This section would include all gunsmithing and gun refinishing under taxable services.
It is extremely important that NRA members and Second Amendment supporters contact their state Senator and strongly urge them to oppose Senate Amendment 2 to Senate Bill 9. The Second Amendment rights and right to safety of Illinoisans is not something that the legislature should tax…

Signs Of The Time, Part 116
ABC News recently reported on the Chicago South Side Trauma First Responders Course, created by a local trauma surgeon as Chicagoans increasingly fall victim to violent crime plaguing the city. Angel Canales and Gillian Mohney reported last Friday:
On a chilly Saturday, 20 volunteers sat in a movie theater-turned-church located on Chicago's South Side, taking detailed notes on how to properly tie a tourniquet, take a pulse and stop the bleeding from a serious injury as part of the inaugural Chicago South Side Trauma First Responders Course.
The course is a first-of-its-kind for the city, which had 762 homicides last year, according to the Chicago Police Department.
Dr. Mamta Swaroop, 39, a trauma surgeon at Northwestern Memorial Hospital, created the Chicago South Side Trauma First Responders Course…
Swaroop came up with the idea for the course after having multiple patients bleed out to death before they could be saved at the hospital. She noticed many had wounds in their arms and legs that, if properly bandaged, may have been survivable…
"Chicago Residents Train to Help Trauma Victims Amid Rising Violence"
ABC News Video
I applaud Dr. Swaroop, Dr. Leah Tatebe/project team, LeVon Stone, CeaseFire Illinois, and these pioneering volunteers for their effort. I suspect it may be only a matter of time before the lifesaving skills learned are called into action.

Chicago Restrictions To Gun Ranges Ruled Unconstitutional
The City of Chicago lost yet another court battle versus gun "rights." From a news release yesterday on the website of the Second Amendment Foundation:
A three-judge panel of the Seventh U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals today handed the Second Amendment Foundation a victory in its challenge of firearms regulations in the City of Chicago, striking down a zoning provision, reversing an earlier ruling that upheld "distancing" restrictions for gun ranges, and reversing an earlier ruling that upheld certain age restrictions.
Writing for the court, Judge Diane S. Sykes noted, "To justify these barriers, the City raised only speculative claims of harm to public health and safety. That's not nearly enough to survive the heightened scrutiny that applies to burdens on Second Amendment rights."
"We are delighted with the outcome of this lengthy case," said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb. "The extremes to which the city has gone in an attempt to narrow its compliance with the Supreme Court ruling in McDonald v. City of Chicago can only be described as incredible stubbornness. In the 6½ years since the high court ruling in our McDonald case, the city has had ample opportunity to modify its regulations. Instead, Chicago has resisted reasonableness.
"We had already sued Chicago successfully to knock down its outright ban on gun ranges within the city," he recalled. "Then they adopted new regulations that included the zoning, distancing and age restrictions that we contested in this legal action, known as 'Ezell II.'
"The city tried to severely limit where shooting ranges could be located, and they failed," he continued. "The city put up arguments about the potential for gun theft, fire hazards and airborne lead contamination, and they failed. Even the judge's opinion today noted that the city had 'produced no evidentiary support for these claims beyond the speculative testimony of three city officials.' This nonsense has got to stop…
(Editor's note: Bold added for emphasis)
The "nonsense" Gottlieb speaks of is well-documented on the Chicago Tribune website this morning. From the Associated Press article:
Chicago has suffered a string of defeats in its efforts to restrict guns, which top officials have cited as a major reason for a sharp rise of violence in the city.
The U.S. Supreme Court forced the city to rewrite its firearms ordinance in June 2010, which had banned the ownership of guns in the city. In response, the city came up with an ordinance outlawing the sale of firearms in the city.
A judge ruled in 2014 the city's ban on gun shops violated the Constitution.
Chicago imposed a blanket ban on shooting ranges in 2010. The Court of Appeals struck down the ban in 2011, prompting the city council to pass ordinances accomplishing the same thing. The Second Amendment Foundation and others took the city to court over the ordinances in 2014.
Sounds like City Hall could really use a refresher course on the U.S. Constitution.
Plus, how much more of the taxpayer dime was blown on this latest anti-Bill of Rights legal activity?

Maxon's Gun Shop, Range Coming To DuPage County?
The last time I blogged about Maxon Shooter's Supplies and Indoor Range in the near-northwest suburb of Des Plaines, I was congratulating them back in February 2015 on receiving a prestigious Five Star rating from the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF).
These days, Maxon's is in the local news for their proposed expansion into DuPage County, Illinois. Erin Hegarty reported on the Chicago Tribune website on November 23:
Preliminary plans have been proposed for an indoor shooting range and gun shop in Warrenville, just across the street from Naperville on Ferry Road.
Naperville resident Dan Eldridge already owns the Maxon Shooter's Supplies and Indoor Range in Des Plaines. Building a second location in Warrenville was a necessity because he needs more classroom space, he said, but it will also fill a void for this type of business in the western suburbs.
"This would allow us to grow in an underserved area in Chicagoland," Eldridge said.
The new location on 7-plus acres at 30W255 Ferry Road will serve residents in Warrenville, Naperville and Aurora – a market that lacks facilities for shooting classes and practice ranges, he said. Its proximity to Route 59 and Interstate 88 will allow them to attract shooting enthusiasts from as far as 20 to 30 miles away, he said…
(Editor's note: Bold added for emphasis)
According to Hegarty, Maxon's owner figures the new facility would employ about 25 full- and part-time workers.

About this recipe: This coconut macaroon recipe has won many prizes over the years! They are very simple to make. Drizzle melted chocolate over the top of the cooled macaroons, if you like.
This is the real thing. Parchment paper is a must here. I've tried adding a teaspoon of almond extract for a change with great sucess. I like to refrigerate the dough for a couple of hours which results in a much rounder macaroon that can be dipped in chocolate. - 12 Dec 2005 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
The ease of making these decadent cookies belies how wonderful they are: Blue Ribbon Winner for sure! My husband, who likes coconut only in very small doses and only toasted, could not stop eating them. I found that the recipe yielded 18 cookies that were larger than golf balls and that took the full 15 minutes to bake. Also, a 14-ounce package of coconut equaled the 5 1/2 cups. Perfect! Thanks for sharing. - 28 Jun 2001 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
This is a great easy recipe. I used a Matfer silicon pad on my cookie sheet which eliminated any sticking and burning. Athough the recipe doesn't specify it, I HIGHLY suggest using sweetened coconut. Also, I subsituted one of the tsps of vanilla extract for almond extract, which worked great. I definitely suggest mixing the extract(s) into the condensed milk before adding to the coconut mix - that way you are sure the flavor is evenly distributed throughout the dough. Molding the cookies was a quite a sticky process, so I just dipped a couple of fingers in a little bit of water as I patted down the dough so that I could get the cookies into a solid shape and still be able to get them onto the cookie sheet in one piece. As an aside, I have made chocolate macaroons before by adding a square (or two) of melted unsweetened bakers chocolate to the condensed milk mix, and I am sure that would work for this recipe as well. Or you could try pressing a maraschino cherry into the top of each cookie - it makes for a very classy presentation - people love it! - 25 Oct 2004 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)

Cambridge Leisure
Shop for Memories!
Cambridge's railway station is roughly a mile away from the city's centre; those who visit the city by rail will either have to walk there, call a cab or take a ride on the tour bus. For those eager to start their shopping experience, check out Cambridge Leisure: a complex just a short walk south of the rail station. With a nine screen Cineworld, a Travelodge, a bowling alley, several grocery stores and restaurants, a gymnasium, and even an art gallery, Cambridge Leisure easily stands up to its name!
Unlike The Grand Arcade, The Grafton or Lion's Yard, Cambridge Leisure has little to offer in terms of clothing or department stores. Instead, the plaza values more entertaining venues where visitors can share experiences.
The Cineworld and Tenpin bowling alley are Cambridge Leisure favorites for visitors and locals alike!
The Pure Gym on site is also very popular. Enjoy state of the art equipment while losing a few pounds—and we don't mean the ones in your wallet!
With the railway station so close by, many visitors take advantage of Cambridge Leisure's Travelodge. This recently refurbished hotel offers double and family rooms for travelers looking for a relaxing atmosphere and easy access to the city centre. Every room comes with a king size Dreamer bed provided by Sleepeezee, to ensure a fantastic night's sleep.
Don't feel like ordering room service? Just outside the Travelodge are nine restaurants ranging from subs to Chinese cuisine. If you're staying longer than a day, Cambridge Leisure also has a Sainsbury's Local and a Tesco Express to provide for all your grocery needs.
Cambridge Junction
The most unique feature of the Cambridge Leisure complex would have to be the art venue: Cambridge Junction. Standing as a big rectangle made of what look like floorboards, the building itself is artistic enough to grab your attention. Inside, the multi-purpose space hosts everything from comedy shows to family plays to late night raves! Show schedules and times can be found on the Cambridge Junction's website, but one thing is for certain: this art venue has much more to offer than just pictures on a wall.
Other shopping areas may be closer to the city centre, but only Cambridge Leisure lets you shop for experiences!

Good morning Everyone!
Didn't mean to be silent for so long. The days are just flying by so quickly. Yet it seems that I get nothing accomplished. Some Christmas decorating has been done. And I really want to start making some special holiday cookies, just haven't done so yet.
Although I have been practicing my fmqing, on some Christmas gifts.
I have a long way to go before I am any good. But I'm having fun...
And thats what is important right? Just keep practicing...
I got my first set of X and + blocks from Pat :)
And we got our first snowfall of the Winter. Isaiah had a great time walking around looking at things that are half buried.
He liked to sit in it for awhile too. And then he had a snowball fight with 2 of his siblings :) And yes, he does have mittens ;)
I hope to come back soon and so you some more stuff I'm working on.
Have a great day!

Creating training plans isn't new to me but I did have a problem fine tuning the start of a new training cycle essentially right at the end of one. The time between the two races doesn't leave much down time, read that as none, and I knew this going the Maui Marathon. And as much as I want to run each day according to the plan, I have already detoured. However, I am not going to get down on myself as I feel the decisions I am making are smart for me right now. And I hope come next week I will run each run as planned.....no excuses.
This week I cut back two 3 mile days to 1 mile days. I have been crazy busy, I am still very tired, and I have a very slight nagging cold. Extra sleep sounded good and I wanted to run my long run as planned.
Today was long run day. My goal according to the training plan was 8 miles. Darling daughter and I headed to the gym and off I went to run. I started okay but my legs felt sluggish. At 2.5 miles my mind felt sluggish and I began to get a wee bit too annoyed by those walking on the treadmills beside me, giggling, hitting each other with towels, etc. If there was another treadmill open I would have moved but I ran on and tried to drown out their games by turning up my tunes a bit. And to think, dear hubby thinks people are just picking up other people at the gym. Nope, this girl is trying hard to ignore the other people and run on.
I made it to 6 miles at my scheduled easy run pace of 10'00" and still wasn't feeling it. It had been 60 minutes of mental battles and determination and then it dawned on me.....my hip was tight, my legs were heavy, and I just ran a marathon 13 days ago. These now 6.01 miles were the most I have done since the Maui Marathon and honestly, I think 6.01 miles on day 13 post-marathon is great. Yes, 8 miles was on my schedule but that was formed off of suggestions from Smart Coach, who wasn't taking into consideration my running up until that point. Just that I want to run a marathon in December. I ran 11 miles last week and am now at 17.32 miles so far this week. I still have tomorrow's miles to factor into week two. So I called it quits on this week's long run and feel no regrets. Yes, I could have pushed the final 2 miles but deep down I don't think I should have. I need to build back up in miles smartly and stay strong in these first weeks of training so I can train hard and on target the final weeks.
So let's open a can of worms and see who all agrees or disagrees....honestly, what would you have done?
Have a beautiful weekend!
Daily Gratitude: I am thankful for 9 days off of work!!!!
Daily Affirmation: Through organization I find peace.

For those who live in or visit New York City, the Health Department provides an invaluable service that grades restaurants according to "food handling, food temperature, personal hygiene, facility and equipment maintenance and vermin control." About 24,000 restaurants are inspected each year, and just in October 2012 alone, 24 restaurants were closed by the Health Department after being reinspected and continuing to receive a poor score (restaurants have two chances to earn an A in every inspection cycle, according to the site, so these restaurants had their chance...)
The grades are required to be posted in the restaurant's window, so those that don't receive an A are surely financially impacted by donning this badge of shame.
When you search for a restaurant either from this page, or at the Health Department website, you can see it's grade history over time, so you may want to think twice before eating at a place that consistently doesn't care to follow food safety protocols.

As a bird bander, summer is not time off during the spring and fall migration monitoring. I run a Grassland bird survey, in conjuction with the Couchiching Conservancy and the MNR. We are looking at a group of birds whos numbers have been declining in the past few years. We are color banding them so the multitude of birders that come to the study area can participate in the project by reporting the band numbers they observe to the Conservancy. We are conducting the survey on the Carden Alvar, north of Kirkfield.
As August aproaches we are preparing for the fall monitoring at Tommy Thompson Park. We will open the station on August 5th, and continue until November 11th.
We are open to the public on weekends and holidays so please feel free to drop by and observe the bird banding operation.

Oxycodone is a narcotic pain medication that doctors prescribe to relieve symptoms in patients with very severe pain. Many patients are prescribed this drug after major dental work, while in recovery from a surgery or for a chronic pain condition. Pregnant women who are in need of pain medication may worry that taking oxycodone in pregnancy can hurt their unborn baby. It may be safe to take oxycodone while pregnant, but it is important for women to follow their doctors' orders strictly. Decisions about whether a woman should be taking oxycodone while pregnant is usually made on a case-by-case basis.
Not much research has been done about the harmful effects of oxycodone on unborn babies. Oxycodone tests that have been performed on animals show the drug does not put fetuses at a larger risk for birth defects. Based on the little information available, some doctors think it is safe for women to take limited amounts of oxycodone in pregnancy — if the drug is the best medication available to treat the pain.
Doctors will weigh the risks and benefits of a woman taking oxycodone in pregnancy before prescribing the medication. A healthcare provider who sees the benefit of the medicine to the mother outweighing the risk to the baby may prescribe the drug. The doctor will likely give the woman a small prescription of oxycodone and will want to see her for regular checkups before prescribing refills. It is important that pregnant women only take oxycodone prescribed directly to them. It is never a good idea for a woman to get oxycodone pills from a friend, because one woman's pregnancy may be considered more high risk than another woman's pregnancy, meaning oxycodone that is safe for one pregnancy might not be for another.
Taking oxycodone in moderation may be OK during pregnancy, but being addicted to oxycodone in pregnancy is not. A woman who is addicted to oxycodone and becomes pregnant should seek professional help as soon as possible. Women who abuse oxycodone during an entire pregnancy can wind up with babies being born already addicted to oxycodone. Babies born to oxycodone-addicted women also stand the chance of having extra-low birth weights.
Pregnant women should speak to their doctors about finding medical detoxification centers that specialize in helping pregnant narcotics addicts. Detoxing alone at home can be very dangerous for pregnant women. Done incorrectly, detoxing can cause painful and harmful side effects to both mothers and babies.

I am 21 weeks pregnant and I had been off of oxycodone for 16 months but in the last week, the pain associated with pregnancy had got a little intense so I've been taking oxycodone. Is stopping it on my own dangerous at this point? |
Kat919 Post 1 |
Something to keep in mind is the effect on the baby after birth. This is an addictive medication and baby can experience withdrawal if s/he is born with oxycodone in their system. I didn't take percocet during my pregnancy, but I was at one time prescribed a narcotic cough syrup. I felt that my symptoms were severe enough that they could be interfering with my body's ability to take care of my baby, so I did take the cough syrup for a few days. This was in my late second trimester, so I was nowhere near delivery. If you take this drug during pregnancy, talk to your doctor about gradually tapering off your dose and being off the drug altogether before your due date. Could go easier on the baby. |
