Allen Lessels' UNH Notebook: Saturday's a reality check for griddersBy ALLEN LESSELS
New Hampshire Union Leader
May 01. 2014 11:47PM
DURHAM -- The University of New Hampshire football team steamed past the halfway point between games that matter and now the Wildcats put on their jerseys and line up in front of real officials and play at Cowell Stadium on Saturday at noon in the annual Blue-White scrimmage that marks the end of their spring football session.
"We were just joking about how fast things go by," said Sean Goldrich, the starting quarterback who will be a junior in the fall. "It seems like not too long ago that we were playing North Dakota State and the next thing you know, spring's over and the next thing you know we'll be back getting ready to do our summer training."
Toledo awaits.
The Wildcats open the season at Toledo, an FBS school a step above UNH's FCS level, on Aug. 30.
As of Saturday's scrimmage, the opener will be 118 days away.
The Wildcats say last season and their last game, 134 days ago on Saturday, fuels them.
After losing three of its first four games in 2013, UNH qualified for the FCS tournament for the 10th straight season and advanced to the semifinals, the furthest it has been in the event.
The Wildcats lost at North Dakota State, 52-14, on Dec. 20. The Bison went on to beat Towson, 35-7, for their third straight national championship.
UNH came close. But not close enough.
"We started 1-3 and we did what we did and it was special and all that," said running back Nico Steriti, who will be a senior. "But I think a lot of the guys on the team are not satisfied at all. I really believe that. We got a little taste and we want more."

UNH'S new senior captains — left tackle Rob Bowman of Cheshire, Conn., and defensive end Cody Muller of Telford, Pa. — will lead the team into Cowell Stadium for Saturday's spring game.
Head coach Sean McDonnell announced the new captains on Thursday.
Both will be in their third year as starters in the fall. Bowman, 6-foot-5 inches and 305 pounds, has been moved from right tackle to left to take the place of the graduated Seamus O'Neill of Manchester.
Muller, 6-foot-4 and 254 pounds, received a medical redshirt from the NCAA that grants him a sixth year as a Wildcat.

SATURDAY'S Blue-White game offers one last chance for players to impress coaches and for coaches to assess how players react in game-like situations.
McDonnell made note of a few players who have had good springs.
Wide receiver Kyon Taylor and tight end Jordan Powell, who will both be sophomores, were two of the players he mentioned on offense. Powell backs up senior Harold Spears.
Senior Brian Ciccone, who has been moved between tight end and defensive end a few times, benefited from getting a full spring on the defensive side, McDonnell said.
"I've really been pleased with Brian Ciccone," the coach said. "He's probably our most improved defensive player in the spring. He's never really got a spring like this to practice, watch tape, get coached and go practice again. It's so huge to see yourself and what you're doing.
He's a high-energy kid and he's got great skills. With him and Cody (Muller) you've got two really solid guys that can play the position and now we've got to find a third."

SOPHOMORE hurdler D'mahl McFadden of Penacook, senior thrower George Jumpp of Manchester, senior sprinter Allison Brehm of Pembroke, junior hurdler Virginia Lavallee of Kingston, senior thrower Bacall Liset of Dover and senior distance runner Anne Twombly of Exeter are among the in-state athletes who will be looking for points in the America East track and field championships at Vermont on Saturday and Sunday.
"D'mahl's just a natural hurdler," said coach Jim Boulanger. "He has good foot speed and all the things you need to be a good hurdler."
Jumpp competes in a tight field in the hammer where, Boulanger said, there are four throwers within about three feet of each other.
"Ginnie Lavallee should do well in both the high and intermediate hurdles, Allison Brehm should do a nice job should in the 100 and 200, Anne Twombly is one of the favorites in the 800 and 1500 and Bacall Liset is ranked third in the hammer," Boulanger said.

THE lacrosse team is looking for its first win in a tournament game since 2009 when it takes on host and No. 1 seed Stony Brook tonight at 5 in an America East semifinal game.
UNH is 7-9 overall and was 2-3 in league games and is the No. 4 seed.
Stony Brook is 14-3 and 4-1 and had an 11-game win streak snapped with an 8-7 overtime loss to Vermont on Saturday. The Wildcats dropped a 15-5 decision at Stony Brook on April 19.
No. 2 Albany, 13-2 and 4-1, and No. 3 Vermont, 12-5 and 5-2, play in the other semifinal at 7:30 tonight.
The winners meet for the championship on Sunday.

Hi All,
After trying to do this myself for a while I have finally realized I do not know enough PHP to continue.
I will be processing credit card transactions thru Paysystems.com tpp-pro solution. I have the documentation of requirements from them.
I need a cart that will allow me to click an item button that contains all of my product info: itemid, customerid etc. that opens a view cart page that can have additional items added to it and removed (continue shopping or remove item).
I would like from the same cart page to be able to select the shipping option (I have a module provided by USPS that I would like to integrate ) and have shipping and items calculated on that page to a grand total amount. Then on checkout send the information to Paysystems.
Basically what I want to do is what is done for most Pay Pal sites except I want to send the info to a different processor.
I do not need a database with this or any files for storage, the processing company has all that for order info and tracking.
If you would be interested in doing this for me I would like for you to get back to me at firstname.lastname@example.com and then from there we can discuss by phone Cost and any additional questions you may have. I do have a Pay Pal.

I do not believe paysystems allows the same freedoms paypal does. i.e. you must store products in your store on paysystems site and there is no "on the fly" product creation that paypal allows you to do. I would look into a different processor.

Awesome collection. Lots of variety and a sweet setup as well.
2 questions for you.
What is that Zelda boxset beneath the Namco Guncon PS1/PS2 games?
What is the title of that lone poor original Xbox game sitting between Odama and Otemedius?
It looks like Genma Onimusha but I cant quite make it out. I must know what it is.

Looking good. Much more organized than the mess I call my gameroom.
Excellent collection, most of all, I love the NES corner.
That remembers to me that I urgently need a copy of Journey to Silius.
I love the Scrolls...all 3 of them are great, I only have the SoTN, would love to get my hands on that Chronicles one...
Both Conan posters!
I love the smell of AES carts in the morning!
Slick stuff Rich, I especially dig the NES and PS2 things.
Nice set up and collection
Im especially jealous of your CIB set of Megaman for NES
Currently listening to:
My Tinnitus
Very nice. Are those custom wall scrolls? They look bad-ass!
Kudos! The MD/SCD combo looks great, so does your holy EgretII... hope teh PUB stays always open ;).
Nice set up love the scrolls have 32 myself from 1992 up to 2003
Photobucket Sig Link DELETED! xROTx
Now that's a man cave. Very nice collection and I'm feeling the Conan Posters.
Nice transformation! Nice NES collection!
Sweet collection. I really like those Genesis, and TG16 games you have there, two of my favorite systems growing up!

Really digging the cab, assortment of sony CRTs and the space! My life is quite cramped right now, working to fix that.
Nice Genesis collection, CRTs, Posters, kitten, and Egret II (but I second Atro). There are still some affordable verts if you look beyond the high profile games, or just get the blast city and throw a 360 in there.
nice trash can, i have the same one.
also nice cat, i have one too, but much fatter and grey and grumpy.
booze corner is sweet as well. mine consists of just a case of PBR usually though.
how are those gaming chairs? ive always been curious whether they would be comfortable, or murder on straining your neck forward since they appear to rock back when you sit in them.

Eulogy Of Giants Lyrics
We are the walking giants.
Born against our mothers will.
Sons of fathers raised to kill.
We were taught to protect.
We were taught to build.
Forty thousand strong and still we suffer.
These days are coming to an end.
Stand up.
Get up.
Dont let them do the same to you.
Did you know the Nephilim died alone?

A winner was selected from 99 designs submitted by 31 freelance designers.
Diane C.H. McNamara Attorney at Law
I am a Workers' Compensation attorney which means I represent everyday people who have been injured while working at their job. While some attorneys in my line of work focus on blue collar workers, I pride myself on working with a wide range of people in a variety of professions and industries. This can range from workers hurt in a construction zone, to warehouse workers lifting heavy boxes, to nurses who slip on wet hospital floor to computer technicians who twist a knee or develop a stress injury.
Potential clients are often cautious about hiring a lawyer but could truly benefit from the guidance and advice I have to offer. The logo should inspire confidence and trust in my law firm and help them feel comfortable contacting us.
We provide relief and help to injured workers.
Any person who has been injured while working and is seeking help and information about their situation.
The logo will be used on our website and print materials. The website is not yet live.
The final product should be delivered in a digital vector format with full source files.
The first line of text should be: Diane C.H. McNamara
The second line of text should be: Attorney at Law
I prefer a logo with a horizontal layout
I am drawn to shapes and designs that are balanced but show a dichotomy/contrast between two sides, such as a hammer (representing a worker) and a gavel (representing the law) but this is just one example

REDLANDS >> It was a busy morning at the San Bernardino County Museum on Saturday. Dozens of families worked together to create flip books, color bug-themed masks and laugh.
The event was part of the museum's "Avoid Summer Brain Drain" activity, which offers a series of informal programs to keep young minds active while school's on summer break.
Activities are planned from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays the rest of the month and are free with paid museum admission.
"When children participate in summer activities that engage their brains through creativity and active thinking, they retain more of what they learn in school and are better prepared for the new school year," Jolene Redvale, the museum's curator of education, said in a news release.
The program began July 2 and has had a successful run thus far, Carla Rosenkild, an educator for the county museum, said Saturday.
"I think we have created an audience now and that's great," she said. "And one of the things we encourage is parent participation."
Among those in attendance were Toni Rousseau and her three children, Rhiannon, 6, Summer, 5, and Shane, 2, who worked together to decide which colors would best complement their activities. Rousseau learned of the project through the a summer fun club program that groups children with special needs with those without to participate in a number of activities in the Inland Empire.
"I'm in a Moms Club, too, so we do crafts to keep them occupied as well," said the Moreno Valley resident.
The program is led by the museum's education staff and volunteers that selected a schedule of activities to highlight throughout the month.
In addition to keeping young minds active during the summer break, "Avoid Summer Brain Drain" also looks to tap into one's creativity and talent, Redvale said.
And, she added in the release, "make memories and learn something new. Activities are appropriate for all ages, and families that find that playing, creating and learning together is especially fun."
The San Bernardino County Museum, 2024 N. Orange Tree Lane, is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays through Sundays.
Admission is $10 for adults, $8 for military or seniors, $7 for students and $5 for children ages 5 to 12. Children under 5 and Museum Association members are admitted free.

The House of Blessings Orphanage in Callebasse, Haiti was in the process of building a school when a massive earthquake rocked the country two years ago. The school was damaged and further construction was halted as House of Blessings became a center for relief and rebuilding for the village of Callebasse. Since the disaster, House of Blessings has brought in supplies and work crews to construct over 140 homes in the area. This humble orphanage, started over 20 years ago, has truly lived up to it's name.
Now it's time for us to be a blessing to them.
We are raising funds to help House of Blessings finish the school that was left unfinished and damaged after the earthquake. May 16 - 23 a small group of us from here in Southwest Michigan will be traveling to work side by side with our Haitian friends. Some of us worked with House of Blessings shortly after the earthquake in 2010 and we're so excited to return and introduce others to this amazing organization. Everyone on the trip is paying their own way so all the money raised here is going directly to the building project. [note: Helping Hands in Motion is the name of the non-prof that organizes trips and construction efforts for House of Blessings. Again, the funds raised here will go directly to the school project.]
Be a part of lasting, sustainable development in Haiti by providing a school for the village of Callebasse. Help House of Blessings continue to bless its community, country and world.

Atelier 11 is an architecture studio based in Beijing, China. With years of practice in architectural design, research, and urban planning, their projects include cultural, commercial, exhibition, sports, and residential developments on all scales throughout the country. The studio's works have received many acknowledgements and awards from China's Ministry of Construction, City of Beijing, and China Architecture & Research Group. In addition, they have published several articles and participated in the compilation of China's national architectural regulations for exhibition & convention centres and underground buildings.
Looking for the truth in architecture and following creative ideals based on the understanding of this "truth" is the key philosophy behind all of Atelier 11's design. In their daily practice, the team is set to focus on the "true" answers to the site conditions of each project. These answers are based on intensive site analysis undertaken in each specific project and are transformed into solutions which make sure that the architecture is communicating properly with its surrounding environment. Atelier 11 never predetermines the architectural forms for any project, and never pursues excessive exposure of individuality for any design if it goes beyond the context.
The "truth" in functionality is always the starting point of the studio's architectural design. In each project, the team pays attention not only to the general functionality, such as human ergonomics and human behavioural patterns; but they also investigate in specific functional requirements, especially on the special physical and spatial needs in the buildings. It is the aim of Atelier 11 to realize the architecture's functionality and convenience to its maximum, with the objection to irrational and presumptuous buildings.
The ultimate goal of Atelier11's is to reach the "truth" in the human mind. Although dimensions, spatiality, forms, colours, textures and architectural details are all related to the aesthetic experiences of each individual and the truth in the human mind is inevitably shadowed by personal influence, Atelier 11 believes that by analyzing the expectation and feelings of the general public and creatively combining these intangible elements with their design skills, the architects would be able to reach agreement between their professional pursuit and the perception of the people who experience the architecture, and therefore they would also accomplish their social responsibilities as architects.
Examples of work include: China National Tennis Center (completed in 2011), China Textile City International Convention Exhibition Center (completed in 2009), Inside-out Art Center (Completed in 2007), Beijing Xi Shan Residential Development (completed in 2006), Pan Long Gu Church (under construction, to be completed in 2012), Pan Long Gu Conference Center (under construction, to be completed in 2012).

Figure 4:
Simulating the Earths temperature variations, and comparing the results to measured changes, can provide insight into the underlying causes of the major changes.
A climate model can be used to simulate the temperature changes that occur both from natural and anthropogenic causes. The simulations represented by the band in (a) were done with only natural forcings: solar variation and volcanic activity. Those encompassed by the band in (b) were done with anthropogenic forcings: greenhouse gases and an estimate of sulphate aerosols, and those encompassed by the band in (c) were done with both natural and anthropogenic forcings included. From (b), it can be seen that inclusion of anthropogenic forcings provides a plausible explanation for a substantial part of the observed temperature changes over the past century, but the best match with observations is obtained in (c) when both natural and anthropogenic factors are included. These results show that the forcings included are sufficient to explain the observed changes, but do not exclude the possibility that other forcings may also have contributed. The bands of model results presented here are for four runs from the same model. Similar results to those in (b) are obtained with other models with anthropogenic forcing. [Based upon

Four days till Christmas and Nick and I are still wildly unprepared. So unprepared that as soon as I post this blog, he and I are taking the day off to panic shop and over spend. Sadly, this has become our tradition. And in honor of our yuletide procrastination, I wrote a special slacker version of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas. Because this is how I anticipate things going down on Saturday night:
'Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house, not a creature was stirring…except the mouse that we found burrowing a hole in the wall of the garage who has probably started a nest in one of the kids' presents we've been storing out there.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, even Nora's, which totally doesn't match because I ordered it from Pottery Barn separately and guessed the wrong color but couldn't return it because I'd had it monogrammed—grrr.
The children were nestled, finally passed out in their beds, while visions of iPhones and flashlights (their only Christmas request) danced in their heads.
I in my apron (making egg casserole for Christmas brunch, which—ack!—I'm hosting) and Nick in his khakis with tools in his lap, surrounded by presents we still had to wrap. And assemble. And possibly still run out and buy from CVS or whatever place might be open at 11 p.m. the night before Christmas.
When out of Nick's mouth, there arose such a clatter, I ran from the kitchen to see what was the matter. Away to the living room I flew like a flash, just in time to catch Nick tearing open the boxes, throwing the directions and—crash!
It was late, we were tired, the fire barely aglow, and the wine we'd drank at Christmas Eve dinner gave a luster of haze to the objects below.
When what to my wondering eyes should appear, but a wooden dollhouse in 80 miniature pieces lying haphazardly on the floor. A refrigerator, a bed, a wall, a door, a tiny loaf of bread and a million things more.
I knew in a moment it must be that Nick didn't put this thing together yesterday like I'd asked.
More rapid than eagles his curses they came, and he grunted and groaned and call me a name. "Now Erin! C'mon! Are you kidding me here? I thought we were getting her a baby doll this year? I'm gonna lose it! I can't! I'm pitching a fit. Seriously, babe, where did you buy this s---?!"
And then, in my fantasy world, I heard on the roof, the prancing and pawing of each little hoof. As I imagined it in my head, and was turning around, down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound.
Except he didn't. It was just Nick and me and all this crap we still had to wrap. Defeated, exhausted, we almost gave up. But it's Christmas! We love this day! We love this season! And so we bucked up and pushed through without any reason…except for the fact that our kids would be wildly disappointed if they woke up to half-assembled unwrapped gifts and pissed off parents.
Nick told a joke, I passed him the tape and slowly the dollhouse began to take shape. I realized he was funny and cute, a right jolly old elf, and I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself. A wink of his eye and a twist of his Phillips head, soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread.
We spoke not a word, but went straight to our work, and filled all the stockings, without saying "you $@# jerk." We took bites from the cookies, adjusted the bows, piled packages under the tree, then up to our bedroom we rose. And then we exclaimed, before we turned out the light, "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"
I would put money on the fact that this is exactly how the Ruddy Christmas Eve is going to go. A little fun, a little stress, and, ultimately, falling in to bed exhausted, excited and proud of our work. Think your Christmas Eve will be like this or are you more of the prepared type? Either way, enjoy the rest of the week and Merry Christmas! And Happy Hanukkah to those of you celebrating today. Hope you have your presents wrapped at this point!

We started November out right with a party. It was Lloyd Smith's birthday and he treated us to pie and ice cream at 5 p.m. so Kelly and I decided to make egg salad sandwiches and chips so everyone had that for their supper. Good job on the pies.
At 9 a.m. on the 6th Jean Marquant celebrated her birthday with a breakfast casserole and home made cinnamon rolls that her daughter made for us. It was delicious; to bad you don't have a birthday at least once a month Jean.
On the 12th Janet Schildroth was here for bible study as always it was very interesting.
For our night out it was all the way to Morrison at the Morris Inn for their rib special, everyone likes those with plenty of left overs to take home.
Also on the 6th the Waterloo mothers chorus came to entertain us. What a good group and we are always happy to have them come.
Some went up town for Miracle on Main on Friday, the 9th and several got to go to the last Senior Citizen dinner at the Memorial Building. It will start again in March.
Lots of Westview people got to spend Thanksgiving with family and friends and this is always special.
Sugar and Spice came to entertain us on the 26th. They always get here around 4 p.m. so we make a little something for supper since everyone is in the dining room so Kelly Dinsdale made chili, homemade bread and German chocolate cake and we also had sparkling grape juice, wine and pink squirrels.
You would think that we just do nothing but eat around here, but that is not true. We keep very busy and the nice part about it if you want to participate in everything you can and if you don't want to you don't have to. Some things we do every month is cards on Tuesday, exercise three days a week, bingo, some kind of entertainment at least two or three times a month, bible study, finger nails done each week, book club once a month and our night on the town once a month.
You need to stop in and see our Christmas decorations. Our place is really neat thanks to Kelly, Connie and Rick.

CAIRO (AP) Before embarking on his first visit to the United States since becoming Egypt's first freely elected president, Mohammed Morsi says Washington in the past earned ill will in the Middle East by backing dictators but now he envisions the two countries being "real friends."
Morsi is heading to New York early Monday to attend the U.N. General Assembly meeting. In an interview with the New York Times published Saturday, he also said that the United States should not judge Egypt by its own standards an apparent reaction to resentment in the Muslim country against an anti-Islam video produced in the United States.
It was his first interview with a U.S. publication since becoming president in the aftermath of the 2011 overthrow of Washington's key strategic ally, Hosni Mubarak.

GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK, Ariz. (AP) — Authorities say nine people are hurt after a tour bus, a minivan and a sedan collided at the Grand Canyon.
National Park Service officials say the tour bus had a dozen people onboard when the crash occurred around 2 p.m. Thursday.
Chief Ranger Bill Wright says one person was flown to Flagstaff Medical Center with serious injuries. Hospital spokeswoman Starla Collins says the hospital received one other person from the crash whose condition is unknown.
Seven others were transported by ambulance for medical treatment.
Wright says the sedan and the tour bus apparently collided head-on on the road between Grand Canyon Village and the park's east entrance, and one vehicle ricocheted into the minivan. Two parked vehicles also were damaged.
The cause of the crash is under investigation.

The people over at a blog called 'Crack of the Whip'
have reviewed the working script of the movie and it's shockingly unkind.
Keep your minds open folks though, the proof will be in the pudding!
Exclusive: Yes Man Screenplay Review.
THE YES MAN by Nicholas Stoller Based On the Book "The Yes Man" by Danny Wallace - First Draft - February 2, 2007
As unfortunate as this might sound, Yes Man is not a return to grace for Jim Carrey. Many of the people I've spoken with have said that although Yes Man has an appealing plot and a wildly funny lead star, it comes off as the typical Jim Carrey vehicle. And it is.
Yes Man is about Carl, a bank teller who has led life by boredom. The usual wake up, eat, work and repeat. Although openly expressing that he loves the life he's currently living, Carl knows that he doesn't. He needs to rediscover what made him the fun loving, get-drunk-with-and-hit-on-women Carl. While one day on a smoke break with his fellow employee's, Carl is handed a sheet of paper advertising the teachings of "Yes." At first, Carl is reluctant to go, but after wanting to rediscover his old self, Carl knows what he must do.
Wacky and hilarious comedy ensue, right? No.
It's the usual vehicle for Carrey. In fact, I don't think there's one character in the entire one-hundred and thirty page screenplay that has a joke other than Carrey's character. It's all Jim as Carl, doing his usual funny faces and having his character endure the typical montages of grueling experiences.
Of course a female interest is in order, right? Renee, a do-it-all-and-live-life kind of gal, is at first an annoyance to Carl. Everyday on his way to work he's stopped, interrogated, and then asked if he would like a flier to one of her performances. Over the course of the screenplay, after accepting that he must say yes to everything, Carl hooks up with Renee and I'm sure you can guess what happens. After making her upset, having the usual with drawl of not being with her, Carl, in the end, has the fortunate experience of discovering that the teachings of "Yes" are a hoax. After realizing that he has been fooled, Carl hooks back up with Renee. A Shyamalan twist for you.
There has to be something funny with the script, surely? I mean, after all, Carrey wouldn't sign on without knowing that there's room to improvise! Unfortunately, there's hardly anything funny with the screenplay. It's more of a dark humor kind of script that expects to draw an audience with Carrey in the lead. Deliberately expecting Carrey to make up for the terrible writing.
Most will think that this is a return for the comedian that could consistently make us laugh and smile - make us believe that he is the true comedian of his era - but it isn't. His career has become so over blown with his comedic style that any film he signs on to is now a vehicle geared for him. It's unfortunate sure, but it's even more unfortunate that Carrey has sunk to this level of material.
Remember its someones lousy blog........but the snippets of info re the film are interesting stuff.....

The next major release of X.Org was scheduled to be released February 2008 - and then May 2008 - and now it's missing, with no sign of when a release will occur. There's still more than three dozen outstanding bugs. This forthcoming release (X.Org 7.4) will also ship with a slimmer set of features than what was initially planned.
On top of that, X.Org 7.4 is shipping with a slimmer set of features than what was planned. X.Org 7.4 was supposed to have Multi-Pointer X (MPX), but that was delayed (though it will be ready for X.Org 7.5). Also sliced out of this release was input hotness, or XKB 2 and Xi 2.
It appears more people are worried about the degrading quality of X.org releases. Out-of-date documentation, blocker bugs lists that are not empty, the complete tree and module set not buildable on one platform, and despite the 200 day delay, X.org 7.4 still has blocker bugs. For such an important piece of software, this is not an ideal situation.

Jaguar has re-engineered its S-Type sedan for 2003, but the differences are hard to see visually, at least from the outside. Driving it, however, reveals a big improvement in responsiveness, ride quality, and vehicle dynamics. Revisions to the interior bring improved comfort and convenience.
An exciting new S-Type R now rides at the top of the model line with a powerful supercharged engine, a sports suspension, and big Brembo brakes. But it's not necessary to spring for the R model to benefit from the improvements: The standard S-Type 4.2 delivers thrilling performance in its own right along with all of the class expected of a Jaguar.
Though transmissions seldom generate excitement, a new six-speed automatic transforms the 2003 S-Type cars, making them extremely responsive and an absolute joy to drive, whether quietly motoring around town, covering great distances, or attacking backcountry roads. The new six-speed automatic is available throughout the entire S-Type line and is the same transmission used in the new BMW 7 Series.
Jaguar's S-Type rear-wheel-drive sedans compete with such mid-size luxury cars as the BMW 5 Series and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. The S-Type's distinctive styling won't be confused with anything else, and you're less likely to see a Jaguar in your neighbor's driveway. Inside, they offer lovely interiors with comfortable seats swathed in leather. They ride very smoothly and are capable of making the driver feel better after getting out of the car than he or she felt before getting into it.
Dynamically, the new Jaguar doesn't have quite the edge of a BMW 5 Series, but the performance advantages of the BMW are mainly evident when using stopwatches at a racing circuit. What's easier to measure is the price differential, and here the Jaguar shines.
Three models comprise the S-Type range, distinguished primarily by their engines: 3.0 liter, 4.2 liter, and the high-performance R. Each model comes fully equipped with rich leather upholstery and all the other features associated with a premium luxury car. For 2003, all S-Type models boast new interiors, new suspensions, new transmissions, and new or revised engines.
S-Type 3.0 ($42,495) is powered by a revised 240-horsepower 3.0-liter V6. It comes standard with a new Getrag five-speed manual transmission. It's also available with the new ZF six-speed automatic ($43,875).
Option packages: Premium ($1500) includes adjustable pedals, power passenger lumbar support, electrochromic outside and inside mirrors, programmable garage door opener, rain-sensing wipers, memory system; Sport ($2000) includes Computer Active Technology Suspension (CATS), 17-inch sport alloy wheels, body-colored exterior trim, gray-stained birds-eye maple interior trim, sport shift knob, leather-wrapped sport steering wheel, sport seats; Communication package ($2250) includes portable cellular telephone, JaguarNet emergency messaging system, voice-activated controls. Standalone options: power moon roof ($1100); xenon headlamps ($675); premium sound system ($1800); heated front seats ($500); DVD navigation system ($2200).
S-Type 4.2 ($49,975) is powered by a new 300-horsepower 4.2-liter V8 (substantially more powerful than last year's engine). The V8 comes with the six-speed automatic. Standard features include the power moonroof and Premium package listed above.
S-Type R ($62,400) is powered by a new 400-horsepower supercharged 4.2-liter V8 mated to the six-speed automatic. In addition to the features found on the 4.2, the R model comes loaded with the xenon headlamps, premium sound system, and heated front seats.
Jaguar's S-Type stands out among other sedans in the $45,000-$55,000 bracket, evoking memories of the original S-Type and Mark II sedans of the mid-1960s.
Few styling changes set the new 2003 S-Type range apart from last year's models, however. Most people won't notice the subtle detail changes: The 2003 model year brings a revised grille with the Jaguar leaper and an integrated growler emblem. Along the sides, a new chrome window surround has been added to enhance the profile. New exterior mirrors, new wheels, and new badges complete the changes. Lever-style door handles remain, which are aerodynamic but harder to grab than the kind you slide your fingers through.
From the front, there's no mistaking the S-Type as anything other than a Jag. Two large headlamps and two small headlamps flank an oval radiator grille. The vertically oriented oval grille is canted forward at the bottom to such an extent that its lower edge is right at the front of the bumper. From the rear, the S-Type has a nicely crouched stance, as though the cat is about to pounce, with trademark triangular-shaped taillights.
Sport models are distinguished from the rest of the range by color-keyed exterior trim around the grille, trunk lid and bumpers, along with special 17x7.5-inch alloy wheels.
S-Type R is distinguished by its mesh grille. Subtle but unmistakable, when you see it in your rearview mirror, you'll know it's an R. It comes with a rear spoiler, special wheels and a unique front air dam with extra ducting for cooling the supercharged engine.
Originally launched for model year 2000, the S-Type sits in the middle of Jaguar's sedans. It fits between the luxurious XJ range and the new X-Type sedan, about 6 inches shorter overall than the XJ but the same width. The S-Type is not small, however. It's a little bigger and heavier than the 2002 BMW 5 Series, but retails at a lower price.
All Jaguar S-Type models come with rich leather upholstery. Attractive birds-eye maple stained bronze trims 3.0 and 4.2 models, adding more warmth to a warm interior. Sport models and the S-Type R are trimmed in gray-stained birds-eye maple veneers. Beautiful light ivory leather seats and trim with tan leather uppers and handsome stitching graced one of the S-Type models we drove.
Three new seat styles are available for 2003. Comfort, sport, and R respectively offer increasingly aggressive bolstering for spirited driving. The driver's seat is narrower in R models.
Sumptuous leather is used on the surfaces of all seats and door panels. The steering wheel is made in a combination of matching wood and leather and feels good. A well-designed toggle on the left side of the steering column quickly, easily and precisely controls the power tilt and telescopic adjustments for the steering wheel. The front seats are comfortable and supportive, with a nice firm seat bottom that minimizes fatigue on long trips.
S-Type is close in interior dimensions to the standard-wheelbase XJ models. Actually, there's a tad more room rear-seat legroom than in the standard XJ. There is a decent amount of space for rear-seat passengers. Rear legroom is on par with other similar sized cars and is actually better than in the standard wheelbase XJ sedan.
For 2003, Jaguar added more storage to the S-Type interior. Two glove boxes are provided in addition to the center console storage. Sunglasses can be stashed in an overhead console case lined with soft rubber. Dual cupholders are provided, but are mounted far enough to the rear as to be a bit awkward to reach while driving.
Trunk space is only average due to the curvy rear end. What's more, Jaguar engineers use swan-neck hinges that intrude in the cargo space; their advantage is that the trunk lid will conveniently pop up when opened. For greater trunk storage, the rear seats can be folded down in a 60/40 split.
The S-Type interior offers a unique character that separates it from its closest competitors. It starts with the dashboard that stretches across the width of the car rather than wrapping the driver in a cockpit-type environment. The lower center of the dash is arranged in a distinctive semi-circular panel; it is a bold design element that draws mixed reactions: Some love it, others don't. We love it. This panel, which is finished in a smooth glossy metallic-looking finish, contains the automatic climate controls, sound system and optional navigational system display. The buttons are big, easy to discern and easy to operate. The instrument pod contains just a fuel gauge and water temperature gauge besides the speedometer and tachometer. All told it is a pleasant design, but not as exotic as Jaguars of the past.
New for 2003 is an electronically controlled parking brake. It is designed to work intuitively and will automatically release in certain circumstances: Switch on the parking brake with the car in Drive at an intersection and it switches off when you accelerate, handy when stopping for traffic lights on steep hills.
Though you can't tell by looking at it, Jaguar has transformed its S-Type sedans for 2003 with a new transmission, a new suspension, redesigned engines, and more sophisticated technology. Driving one of the S-Type cars is highly satisfying. It imparts a feeling of class and sophistication to passengers. It is beautiful to behold, and it offers a compelling alternative to Mercedes and BMW.
The importance of a good transmission can't be underestimated and the new S-Type comes with a great one, perhaps the best available. The six-speed automatic ZF is the same transmission used in the new BMW 7 Series (which starts at $67,850). This transmission is extremely responsive and silky smooth. It offers improved drivability around town, a benefit of the additional ratios. It delivers both better performance and improved fuel economy. It features a Sport mode, allowing the driver to shift manually. Select this mode and the transmission will not shift above the highest gear selected, though it will shift up and down below this gear according to conditions. The transmission has two overdrive ratios. Sport mode stays in fifth unless the driver maintains a steady state for 30 seconds. But most of the time we preferred to simply leave it in Drive and let it do its thing, as it does it so well. It's a smart transmission: lift off the throttle for a corner and it senses the steering angle and holds it in gear. It also holds a gear on hills, eliminating hunting between gears.
The 3.0-liter V6 engine is smooth and delivers plenty of power for most drivers. Jaguar revised the V6 with an improved variable induction system and continuously variable cam phasing. That means the engine can breathe better at different engine speeds for faster response around town. We have not driven an X-Type 3.0 since the V6 was revised nor have we tried it with the optional six-speed automatic, which should further improve responsiveness and performance. Acceleration performance and fuel economy are improved over the 2002 model. Also available for the 3.0 is a Getrag five-speed manual transmission. Like other S-Type models, the 3.0 comes standard with Dynamic Stability Control, traction control, and the new electronic parking brake. About 65 percent of S-Type buyers choose the 3.0 V6 model.
We also got about 300 miles in an S-Type with the 240-horsepower 3.0-liter V6 engine, which was just as impressive in its own way. The acceleration was so good that we came away believing a driver would have to be fairly power-hungry to need the 4.2. It was enormously smooth and civilized; for many years Jaguar was known for building silky inline six engines, and now it does the same with V6s.
But it was the ZF six-speed automatic transmission that seemed to make the engine more powerful. Torque is not an issue, because of the way the transmission kept the engine so magically in the muscle of the powerband. Passing on a two-lane, you floor it at 50 mph in fifth gear and in a heartbeat (no, quicker) you're directly in second gear at 5500 rpm, surging without lurching. Whether in the manual mode or in Drive, it does exactly the same thing. In manual, however, you have to upshift yourself to stay off the rev limiter.
The 300 horsepower of the 4.2-liter V8 engine might provide more visceral pleasure, and still quicker passing, but it can't offer more practicality or perfection.
We might add that our 3.0-liter S-type did not have the Sport package with its firmer suspension, but we still found the cornering to be exceptional.
The 4.2-liter V8 engine delivers truly spirited performance. Jaguar has redesigned this engine, improving its low-rpm torque for quicker acceleration. Jaguar says this model will accelerate form 0 to 60 mph in 6.6 seconds, which is quite quick, though not quite as quick as the 2002 BMW 540i. Changes over last year's 4.0 engine include new cylinder heads, forged pistons, a new exhaust manifold, and many other changes to the
With its sensuous looks, Jaguar's S-Type makes a statement when it rolls onto the scene. It combines that with a luxurious, crafted interior in understated British fashion. The S-Type cars are effortless to drive with a relaxed, refined ride. They offer cutting-edge technology that's relevant and free of gadgetry.
The S-Type is a compelling alternative to the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class cars. We really like the 4.2 model. Not only is the Jaguar less expensive than its German competitors, it more than holds its own in terms of curb appeal and performance. With its increased performance, the $62,400 Jaguar S-Type R is an interesting alternative to the $69,900 BMW M5 and $71,350 Mercedes E55 AMG cars. Any performance difference between the Jaguar and the BMW and Mercedes is going to come down to the driver.

FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) — The European Central Bank kept its key interest rate on hold Thursday and raised its economic growth forecasts as it acknowledged that the recovery is strengthening in the 18 countries that use the euro.
The euro jumped as markets took the bank's inaction and the comments from its president, Mario Draghi, as a sign that the top monetary authority for the eurozone might not take further steps to stimulate the economy.
"Amid a gradually firming recovery, the ECB sees no need to act," analyst Christian Schulz at Berenberg Bank in London wrote in a research note. "Draghi also gave no indication today that the ECB may ease policy again in the foreseeable future."
After the decision to keep the key rate at a record low of 0.25 percent, Draghi said the bank had raised its projection for economic growth to 1.2 percent this year, up slightly from the 1.1 percent estimate made in December.
The euro rose sharply, gaining a cent against the dollar to trade around $1.3840. Expectations that the central bank will not cut rates tend to boost the euro, since that means higher returns on interest-bearing investments.
Yet Draghi warned that the economy still had so much slack to take up that the ECB's stimulus policies of low rates and easy credit to banks "will continue even though we see improvements in the economy." The eurozone grew 0.3 percent in the fourth quarter but unemployment remains high at 12 percent.
The ECB trimmed its inflation forecast for this year, to 1 percent from 1.1 percent, and to only 1.5 percent in 2016. That is well below the bank's goal of just under 2 percent. But it said inflation will rise steadily to 1.7 percent by the last quarter of 2016.
Some economists worry the eurozone might fall into deflation, a sustained drop in prices that can choke growth, though the ECB has said it doesn't expect that. Inflation in February was only 0.8 percent. However, the core rate, which excludes volatile food and fuel costs, has edged higher.
Japan fell into deflation in the 1990s but Draghi drew an extended contrast between Europe and Japan, arguing they were different. Inflation expectations remained steady in the eurozone, "and that was not the case in Japan," he said, adding the ECB was not being complacent.
Some analysts were expecting the ECB to trim its deposit rate below zero, effectively penalizing banks for holding money at the ECB instead of lending it. Others thought it might stop taking weekly deposits from banks, which would cause an increase in the amount of money in the financial system.
A more far-reaching measure would be large-scale purchases of financial assets such as government bonds with newly created money, as the U.S. Federal Reserve has done. That would increase the amount of money in the economy and aim to lower market interest rates. But such a move faces legal, political and technical obstacles in a currency union with 18 members.
Draghi said all those steps remained under consideration but would take time to study: "These projects have not been shelved."
He said the turmoil in Ukraine would not have a large direct impact on the eurozone economy because trade flows are relatively small. Neighboring Russia sent troops into Ukraine's Crimea region after a pro-Russian president was ousted by a protest movement demanding closer ties to Europe. Draghi said the consequences of a broader geopolitical disruption were harder to assess.
He acknowledged that some European countries such as Poland might see the euro was "an island of stability" and accelerate efforts to join. But he said the broader considerations involved of national security "go well beyond the mind of a humble central banker."

Hint: India is last among the G20 and the United States didn't crack the top five in the latest survey to reflect poorly on the situation of American women.
A poll of 370 gender experts yielded some interesting results that reflect the local cultural, economic, political and developmental geographies. Beyond using the lists of best and worst countries (since the rankings are still based on rather subjective criteria), students can come up with their most important factors in evaluating gender equity and evaluate the countries based on their own evaluations.

Born today in May 31,1819: Walt Whitman. An exhibition on his life.
A Noiseless Patient Spider
A NOISELESS, patient spider,
I mark'd, where, on a little promontory, it stood, isolated;
Mark'd how, to explore the vacant, vast surrounding,
It launch'd forth filament, filament, filament, out of itself;
Ever unreeling them—ever tirelessly speeding them.
And you, O my Soul, where you stand,
Surrounded, surrounded, in measureless oceans of space,
Ceaselessly musing, venturing, throwing,—seeking the spheres, to connect them;
Till the bridge you will need, be form'd—till the ductile anchor hold;
Till the gossamer thread you fling, catch somewhere, O my Soul.
Analysis of this poem are everywhere on the net. They usually stress the human capacity, a near craving in the search for connections or at least a couple of truly meaningful ones. Though there is a sadness, a melancholy, "surrounded, in measureless oceans of space" that is a meditation about the human desire to fill up what can at times seem like the vastness of existence with some kind of contribution – labor, art, companionship, empathy. Others fell the void with delusions of noble violence, war and greed.

Adapted from The Price of Inequality, by Joseph Stiglitz, to be published in June,
The "Rent Seeking" Problem
Here I need to resort to a bit of economic jargon. The word "rent" was originally used, and still is, to describe what someone received for the use of a piece of his land—it's the return obtained by virtue of ownership, and not because of anything one actually does or produces. This stands in contrast to "wages," for example, which connotes compensation for the labor that workers provide. The term "rent" was eventually extended to include monopoly profits—the income that one receives simply from the control of a monopoly. In time, the meaning was expanded still further to include the returns on other kinds of ownership claims. If the government gave a company the exclusive right to import a certain amount of a certain good, such as sugar, then the extra return was called a "quota rent." The acquisition of rights to mine or drill produces a form of rent. So does preferential tax treatment for special interests. In a broad sense, "rent seeking" defines many of the ways by which our current political process helps the rich at the expense of everyone else, including transfers and subsidies from the government, laws that make the marketplace less competitive, laws that allow C.E.O.'s to take a disproportionate share of corporate revenue (though Dodd-Frank has made matters better by requiring a non-binding shareholder vote on compensation at least once every three years), and laws that permit corporations to make profits as they degrade the environment.
The magnitude of "rent seeking" in our economy, while hard to quantify, is clearly enormous. Individuals and corporations that excel at rent seeking are handsomely rewarded. The financial industry, which now largely functions as a market in speculation rather than a tool for promoting true economic productivity, is the rent-seeking sector par excellence. Rent seeking goes beyond speculation. The financial sector also gets rents out of its domination of the means of payment—the exorbitant credit- and debit-card fees and also the less well-known fees charged to merchants and passed on, eventually, to consumers. The money it siphons from poor and middle-class Americans through predatory lending practices can be thought of as rents. In recent years, the financial sector has accounted for some 40 percent of all corporate profits. This does not mean that its social contribution sneaks into the plus column, or comes even close. The crisis showed how it could wreak havoc on the economy. In a rent-seeking economy such as ours has become, private returns and social returns are badly out of whack.
Maybe he does in the book, but I wish that Stiglitz had gone more into how long the U.S. and western Europe (to some extent) can continue this descent into two economies. The worker economy that is making the same thing – adjusted for inflation – it was making thirty years ago, and the top one to ten percent who are making their money through rent seeking. It does not take a majority to continue the trend. Conservatives are a minority in the U.S. Senate and because of parliamentary rules they can and have held up any legislation that addresses deeper financial reform They have even been somewhat successful in blocking implementation of the financial reform we did pass in 2009. Since the rent seekers have more money they can also siphon off funds from the middle and working class by trying to pass an estimated 400 state level bills aimed at passing Jim-Crow-Lite laws aimed at women. The Emancipation Proclamation was passed in 1863. Yet we did not have real emancipation until the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Those opposed to real capitalism, a system that incorporates economic justice, might not take a hundred years, but a half century wait is a real possibility without more progressives in Congress. Stiglitz addresses something that former Labor Secretary Robert Reich has hit on, as that Paul Krugman hints at, that if the 1% mentality about how the economy should run continues, it will take democracy down with it.
In a society in which inequality is widening, fairness is not just about wages and income, or wealth. It's a far more generalized perception. Do I seem to have a stake in the direction society is going, or not? Do I share in the benefits of collective action, or not? If the answer is a loud "no," then brace for a decline in motivation whose repercussions will be felt economically and in all aspects of civic life.
For Americans, one key aspect of fairness is opportunity: everyone should have a fair shot at living the American Dream.

The contraceptive coverage benefit does not substantially burden religious practice but rather preserves the religious liberty of individuals to make personal medical and moral decisions without interference from anyone, including their employers. In addition, it has been well established that the government has a compelling interest in protecting public health and remedying long-standing discrimination by ensuring that women receive contraceptive coverage through their health plans.

£68,000 for race case footballer
A black footballer who was unfairly sacked by his former club after suffering racial victimisation has been awarded more than £68,000 following a landmark legal victory.
The sum of £68,728 handed to Mark McCammon at a remedy hearing follows the tribunal's judgment last month and includes loss of earnings and breach of contract, his solicitor, Sim Owolabi, said.
Striker McCammon, 33, brought the race victimisation case - believed to be the first of its kind against a British football club - after being dismissed for alleged misconduct last year.
The former Barbados international told a four-day hearing in Ashford, Kent, in June that he had been put "through hell" at League 2 Gillingham as he was treated differently from white players.
The club strongly denied his claims and said they were "staggered" by the judgment in his favour as they had employed thousands of staff of different races without complaint.
As part of his case, 6ft 2in McCammon said he was ordered to come into the ground amid "treacherous" winter driving conditions while some white players were not required.
The player, who signed for the Gills in 2008 on £2,500 a week, also said the club tried to "frustrate him out" by refusing to pay private medical bills to help him regain his fitness following injury. Instead, he claimed he was offered the same operation on the NHS rather than privately, a move he described as "completely out of character" for a Football League club, and that he was fined two weeks' wages when he visited a private consultant.
In contrast, the former Charlton, Swindon, Millwall and Brighton player said a white team-mate was flown to Dubai for treatment by an eminent physiotherapist at the club's expense. In a letter sent to the Professional Footballers' Association outlining his grievances, McCammon also claimed he was told not to blog while others were permitted to do so.
Dubai-based Gillingham chairman Paul Scally described McCammon's race claims as being made "maliciously and without foundation". There was no immediate comment from Gillingham but Mr Scally indicated on Thursday that they may appeal against the judgment, which he described as "bizarre".
He told BBC Radio Kent: "We're talking to lawyers this week and we'll make a decision in the next few days. It was such a bizarre, extraordinary and wrong decision, in my view, that it affected everyone in the club." He refuted claims that the club was racist, adding: "We know we are an equal opportunities employer and we know we have no issues with black people, white people or any nationality, race or creed. That's all that really matters and I think the people that love this club and support it know equally."


text: Friday, February 18, 2011 New in the Literature: MCID Values (Top Stroke Rehabil. Vol 17 Issue 6) The estimated minimal clinically important difference (MCID) values presented in a study conducted in 2 outpatient physical therapy clinics provide a way for clinicians to evaluate meaningful change in individual patients and for researchers to evaluate meaningful change between groups, say authors of an article published in the November-December 2010 issue (Vol 17, Issue 6) of Topics in Stroke Rehabilitation. The Stroke Impact Scale-16 (SIS-16) scores of participants receiving services at 2 clinics who met inclusion and exclusion criteria (n = 36) were taken at baseline and discharge. At discharge, participants and their physical therapists rated their perceived amount of recovery on a Global Rating of Change (GROC) scale. Estimated MCID values were calculated for the SIS-16 using receiver operating characteristics curves with the GROC as anchors. There was no difference in baseline characteristics between participants who reported important improvement and those who did not. There was a fair relationship between change in SIS-16 scores and participants' (0.41) and physical therapists' (0.38) GROC scores. Change in SIS-16 scores was significantly greater in participants who reported an important amount of change on the GROC scale and those who did not. Estimated MCID of the SIS-16 ranged from 9.4 to 14.1 depending on the anchor. APTA member George Fulk, PT, PhD, led the study, which was coauthored by members Kari Dunning, PT, PhD, and Pierce Boyne PT.

Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water before preparing formula. 2. Pour desired amount of water into the bottle. Add powder. 3. Cap bottle and shake well. Use the chart for correct amounts of water and powder. Use scoop in can to measure powder. Store dry scoop in this can. To Make 2 fl oz Bottle: 2 fl oz water, 1 unpacked level scoop powder (8.8 g); To Make 4 fl oz Bottle: 4 fl oz water, 2 unpacked level scoops powder (17.6 g); To Make 8 fl oz Bottle: 8 fl oz water, 4 unpacked level scoops powder (35.2 g). Each scoop adds about 0.2 fl oz to the amount of prepared formula. Failure to follow instructions could result in severe harm. Once prepared formula can spoil quickly. Either feed immediately or cover and store in refrigerator at 35-40 degrees F (2-4 degrees C) for no longer than 24 hours. Do not use prepared formula if it is unrefrigerated for more than a total of 2 hours. Do not freeze prepared formula. After feeding begins, do not refrigerate feeding bottle. You must use within 1 hour or discard. Powder Storage: Store cans at room temperature. After opening can, keep tightly covered, store in dry area and use contents within 1 month.

Literally translated as "staging in action," mise-en-scène originated in the theater and is used in film to refer to everything that goes into the composition of a shot–framing, movement of the camera and characters, lighting , set design and the visual environment, and sound .
Early cinema's finished products were often closer to stage dramas, with a static camera stringing together a series of narrative sections. Georges Méliès' A Trip to the Moon (1902) is an example of this tendency toward the theatrical as opposed to the cinematic. The beginnings of cinematic mise-en-scène are still apparent.
The term "mise-en-scène" is often used in film criticism to refer to the director's control over what appears in the film frame–ranging from real locations to the studio soundstage. In Robert Weine's 1919 film, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari , we see a dramatic example of a world that is completely artificial. Furthermore, Conrad Veidt's portrayal of the character Cesare shows the importance that acting plays in mise-en-scène.
In Hollywood during the 1930s and '40s, the style and look of a film could easily be associated with a particular studio. Vincente Minnelli's film Meet Me in St. Louis (1944) is an excellent example of the MGM style: elaborate sets, lit using full, high-key lighting, taking advantage of the biggest costume, property, and art departments in Hollywood.
Similarly, film noir in the postwar period developed its own mise-en-scène. In this sequence from Mildred Pierce (1945), the mise-en-scène emphasizes familiar themes in noir, like the idea of no escape and the state of being on the run.

Being a parent is the most rewarding job in the world. Also, the most demanding, exhausting, messy, stressful, maddening and hilarious. It's no wonder that moms and dads can sometimes get a little…loopy. Hey, we're not here to judge. But what we are here to do is bring a little insight (and a lot of levity) to these unique situations with some help from the creator of The Ugly Volvo , Raquel D'Apice. We call this Parent Brain. Consider it proof that you're not alone. Or crazy.
We all would like to raise children who are appreciative or who are, at the very least, not conniving ungrateful monsters (#ParentingGoals). Agree? Good.
The first step in raising a child who appreciates everything is accepting that your child will absolutely not appreciate everything. For example, here is a thing that sometimes happens during the holidays:
That being said, I used to love the book Little House in the Big Woods, in which Laura Ingalls Wilder enthusiastically describes what she received one Christmas when she was a young girl in the 1880's.
Another year she got "an orange" and reacted with the enthusiasm of a child receiving an iPad and season tickets to Great Adventure. Over an orange. And as a young child I remember thinking, "HOW IS THAT ANY SORT OF EXISTENCE?" whereas as an adult I often find myself thinking, "Please, please someone explain to me how to raise a child who is overjoyed about receiving an orange, a cup, one candy cane and a penny."
I don't like telling people "how to make their children more appreciative" because I have never met their children and children are wildly different. And because many people have older children than mine and are dealing with the effects of peer pressure and hormones while I am still trying to get a four-year-old to look at people's eyes when he says thank you. But I'm attempting it because it's something I think about so often and is something I want so badly to do well. So take this advice with a grain of salt, which, for the record, is something else Laura Ingalls probably would have been super excited to find in her stocking.
I don't have Snapchat on my phone, and my son is forced to wait until he is visiting my sisters to see what he looks like as a boy-dog hybrid with a tongue the size of a log flume. This at times makes him very sad ("Why can't you get a phone that has that dog face thing?") but in the long run makes him appreciate it that much more. This one is probably pretty obvious but seemed like the right place to start.
When your relatives go, "Oh, hey, I hope it's ok that we bought your kid one hundred million presents because we love them and also this stuff was on sale and so cute!" go, "I'm so sorry, you are not allowed to do that anymore." Set limits. If your kid is having a birthday, don't be afraid to tell friends and family no gifts. If people show up with gifts anyway, don't be afraid to throw those gifts in their faces and go, "I SAID NO GIFTS, YOU IGNORANT NE'ER DO WELLS!" and oh my goodness, I am obviously kidding. Please do not say that to anyone. But if your kid is little you can hide some of the gifts and dole them out over the course of a few months. Ok, weeks. Ok, days. YOUR CALL.
From a quick cheer to a standing ovation, clap to show how much you enjoyed this story.

Test Your Sodium Smarts
You may be surprised to learn how much sodium is in many foods. Sodium, including sodium chloride or salt, can come from natural sources or be added to foods. High–sodium diets are linked to increased blood pressure and a higher risk for heart disease and stroke. The American Heart Association recommends that you aim to eat less than 1,500 mg of sodium per day.
When you buy prepared and packaged foods, you can read the amount of sodium in the product per serving, in milligrams (mg), by looking at the Nutrition Facts panel. Read the Nutrition Facts panel for the overall nutrition information including calorie, fat and sodium content before you make food choices. Select and prepare foods with little or no salt.
Test your sodium smarts by answering these 10 questions about which food products are higher in sodium — we'll calculate your score at the end. Most examples use the USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, which shows the average nutrient values of multiple commercially prepared food products of the same type. Sodium amounts can vary depending on the brand, which is why we are showing averages. We've chosen "regular" or "traditional" varieties of foods as examples to illustrate their high sodium content. When you shop, we recommend that you select sodium free, low–sodium, or reduced–sodium foods whenever they are available to reduce your sodium consumption.
Good luck!

When Jerry Colangelo, currently the chairman of USA Basketball, moved his family from the Chicago area to Phoenix where he became the general manager of the Phoenix Suns, he had a wife, three children, nine suitcases and $900 in his pocket.
"It was exciting when you're young, you're eager," Colangelo said. "Sports gave me another kind of a platform which was, I was never afraid to fail. It didn't matter if we lost, I knew I was going to get up and try again."
Colangelo, an alumnus of the University of Illinois, returned campus to speak at the College's Dale Cozad Lecture in Entrepreneurship on April 8. While attending the University, he played basketball, captaining the team his senior year, and baseball.
"Coming back here is always very nostalgic to me because in some ways you can't go back," Colangelo said. "It's never quite the same and then once you're here it just brings back a lot of memories, good memories."
He said his success is a result of the many blessings he's had, including the upbringing he had in an old Italian neighborhood south of Chicago where he learned the true meaning of sacrifice and hard work. His athletic talent was also a blessing, he said, because it afforded him the opportunity to play ball at ILLINOIS, making him the first member of his family to attend college.
"And so that was another blessing, and it was here at the University of Illinois that I became a man, in a lot of different ways," Colangelo said.
He met his wife on a blind date at ILLINOIS and made connections through basketball that laid the foundation for what was to come.
After graduating he connected with Dick Klein, a man who had a vision to bring professional basketball back to Chicago. Colangelo went to work for him, and the Chicago Bulls was born. After spending a few years developing the franchise, he moved to Arizona to accept an offer to work as general manager of the Phoenix Suns.
"I was very fortunate to be in a growth industry without knowing it with the start of the Chicago Bulls, the first expansion team in the modern era," Colangelo said. "And I was 26, going on 27, and to meet people who I never would have met, is something I never would have had an opportunity to do, unless that chance opportunity had taken place."
He served various positions with the Suns, including owner of the team from 1987 to 2004. In 1998 he helped start the baseball club, the Arizona Diamondbacks and was serving as chairman and CEO when the team won the World Series in 2001, the fastest team baseball in history to do so. He brought the Winnipeg Jets to Arizona in 1996, where the club became the Phoenix Coyotes.
"And so, my run in Phoenix was really something that I pinch myself about, and when people say, 'Jerry do you ever think about it?' and the best answer for me is, no, because I'm too busy thinking about what's ahead," Colangelo said.
Despite the World Series victory, he said he felt a void in his life because he had never won a basketball championship.
He described 2004 as being a watershed year for him. He sold the Suns, traveled Europe with his wife and underwent surgery for prostate cancer. While recovering from surgery, David Stern, commissioner of basketball, contacted him and asked him to take over USA Basketball.
He accepted the job and began the task of changing the team, which he said had hit an all-time low in the 2004 Olympics when the team finished third in the tournament. In addition to the disappointing finish, comments were made that suggested the USA team did not respect the sport of basketball, and or its competitors.
"So what I had to sell was a passion and a vision and a plan," Colangelo said. […] "The culture needed to change because we did not show respect for the rest of the basketball world. […] We needed to change that culture, and I set out to do that. I did it one-on-one, eyeball-to-eyeball with each of the people I asked to participate."
Part of changing the culture meant changing the attitudes of people involved, and Colangelo made it clear that the players needed to set aside their personal agendas for the sake of a unified team agenda. He said all members of the team bought into this idea and in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the American basketball team won the gold medal.
"When teamwork is the destination, victory happens along the way," Colangelo said. "I really believe that."
After a successful career in sports, Colangelo has a choice of three rings he can wear: a World Series ring, a basketball hall of fame ring and an Olympic basketball ring. He said he chooses to wear the ring from the Olympics.
"It's because everything else pales to me," Colangelo said. "To have the ability to represent your country on an international stage, to change a culture, to have a game plan, a passion, a vision, to have it implemented and executed. It just doesn't get any better than that."
Nearing the end of his lecture, he told a story that a mentor from the old Italian neighborhood where he grew up told him. Colangelo said the man pointed to a star and said, "Jerry, see that star out there in the sky? It's better to be on that star for day than never get there at all."
"That really has been the driving influence in my life because I believe it," Colangelo said.
Colangelo spent his day at ILLINOIS meeting with many student groups and student leaders before addressing a larger audience in the afternoon. He said he found the efforts of the students admirable and made him optimistic for the future.
"I commend what's happening here at the university," Colangelo said. "I encourage all the young people to shoot for that star, to go forth, don't be afraid to fail, enjoy your ride."

I am so frustrated b/c i can't figure out what is wrong with my four month old.twins (two.months adjusted). They were born 9weeks early and.spent 6wks in the nicu. They got pumped milk, maybe once or twice if at all? formula.early.on (i.can't recall) and towards the end had human.milk.fortifier.added to help with gaining. They were bottle fed and.only after they were discharged did.we really "get" breastfeeding. By their due date they were 100% breastfed and gaining fine.
Initially when.they were in the nicu.and.for.a.little while after discharge, they had normal bf poop. At some.point after discharge (details hazy) their poop became.green, stinky, thick, and infrequent(we up to.7-8days now). There nay or.may not be mucus in.it (it is stretchy, but not.obviously mucosy). I.have not seen any blood, but plan to have the ped test this week at their 4-month check.up. The big BIG issue.is.the.fussiness. They were not happy ever unless.sleeping or nursing....and they nursed round the.clock. They also spit up all the time too.
About.a.month ago.i.got the ped to.give us zantac which.didn't seem to make.a difference. I also.cut.out obvious. dairy. I ALSO.contacted a lactation.consultant who.said.it.could be oversupply and.recommended block.feeding them. There has been.improvement, but i don't know if it is the block.feeding.or the.dairy.elimination. I do.have a strong letdown.and have been.nursing in.more upright.positions and spraying.into.a cloth when i.letdown.and.
Meanwhile, their.poop is.STILL infrequent stinky.and green. There are plenty.of.wet.dipes.also
The last poop.a.week.ago, one.baby had much.more yellow.color.to.it, still.not.normal though.
In a fit of desperation after a two.day scream fest, i bought nutramigen and fed it to.one baby to.see.if it helped...and it has only been a.day, but i.am.not.seeing any differences in their behavior (they are both actually happy today).
Sorry.for the book---i.want.to.bf.them. i.do.not.want to.use.formula. i.also.don't want to.cut.out dairy if.os is the.issue. their.symptoms.overlap so.much and i.want to.be able to.isolate whT the problem is.
(The ped is.no.help. the neonatologist that sees them b/c they were preemies.told.me.to.feed.them.formula and.do.it.only.3-4 hours as it.would.fill them up.better. .i.didn't. Before i.implemented any changes they ate all the time and.apit up just as.much. They stil are spitty, but not.as.hungry.it seems.
Anyway----i.want to.fix this and.i.am so.frustrated (whixh is why.i.keep trying.different thingsinstead.of.one at a.time)

EU ambassador warns Israel of isolation
JERUSALEM (AP) — The European Union's ambassador to Israel has warned the Jewish State that it would likely endure "increasing isolation" if peace talks with the Palestinians collapse.
Lars Faaborg-Andersen told Israel's channel 2 TV Monday that such a scenario wouldn't necessarily be a result of European policy, but rather the actions of private companies.
His comments echo those made by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, who is brokering the talks and who warned last week that the boycott would expand if talks fail.
The warnings caused uproar in Israel, with some officials condemning the remarks while others recommended the government take note.
A small but growing number of European businesses have cut trade with firms involved in West Bank settlements.
